The Night Before (Life Goes On)
Carrie Underwood
From 'Some Hearts'

Capo 2

      

          
Sittin up on the roof
           
Sneakin a smoke by the chimney
        
Checkin out the moon
         
And the city lights
                  
He takes off his flannel shirt
                
And drapes it around her shoulders
                        
Slides up behind her and holds on tight

And she says
                        
I dont want this night to end

Why does it have to end

                   
Tomorrow she'll be rollin down I-10

Baton Rouge, LSU
                   
18 years in her rear-view
                                   
He's got a friday paycheck lined up down the block

At daddy's shop

It aint much but its a job
                                         
Theyve been dreadin this moment all summer long

The night before
                   
Life goes on


Oooh
A tear falls off her cheek and
Right when it hits his arm he says
Come on baby
Lets get outta here
They take one last drive around town
And man it
Already looks different
He bangs the wheel and says
Life aint fair
And this growin up stuff man I dont know
I just dont wanna let you go



Tomorrow shell be rollin down I-10
Baton Rouge,LSU
18 years in her rearview
Hes got a friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
It aint much but its a job
Theyve been dreadin this moment all summer long
The night before
              
Life goes on
            
Yeah thats what my momma told me
      
And just like those kids
                       
I didnt wanna listen to no one
            
Yea theres nothin you can do
       
Theres nothin you can say
                            
And I know how it feels when love goes away

Tomorrow shell be rollin down I-10
Baton Rouge,LSU
18 years in her rearview
Hes got a friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
It aint much but its a job
Theyve been dreadin this moment all summer long

But here it is
They dont have long
The night before                           
Life goes onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
