LOOK WHAT FOLLOWED ME HOME
By: David Ball
From: Charlie Schweitzer (CccSchw@AOL.Com)


A E A,        A
(1st Verse)  Well I made my plans to leave you far behind


    E                       D              A
To put you in my past, and get you off my mind. 


So I took your mem'ry, on a midnight ride.


        E                                              A (STOP)
Down a dark an lonely back road, and left it there to die.


                                     A    D                 A
(Chorus)  But look what followed me home, I thought I was alone.


                                     E
But your memory, it's comin' back to me


                         A     D                  A
I thought I'd left it behind, and got you off my mind.


                               E                            A
But I see I was wrong, wrong, wrong, look what followed me home.


(Lead)  A  D  A  E  A


              A
(2nd Verse)  Well, I walked down to the river, at the break of dawn,


        E                          D             A
With a picture of you darlin', up underneath my arm.


I said the heartache's over, today is your last day,


       E                                            A
And I thanked that muddy river, as it carried you away.


(Chorus)


D                     A             E (STOP)                      A
  Yeah!  I see I was wrong, wrong, wrong.  Look what followed me home.
