I Didn't Have The Nerve It Took To Go  
Recorded by Billy Walker
Written by Billy Walker and Mitchell Torok

C                                              G7
I’ve always tried to tell you that someday I’d change
                                   C
That I wouldn’t let you hurt me anymore
                                                  G7
But you would laugh and say that I would stay the same
                                        C
That I didn’t have the nerve it took to go
 
     F                                          C
I’ve locked the house and in the mailbox is the key
                                   G7
I only took the things that are my own
C                                                       G7
You’ll regret the words sweetheart you’ve often said to me
                                        C
That I didn’t have the nerve it took to go

                                        G7
Every step I take I leave a tear in its place
                                   C
I know that without you I can’t go on
                                                   G7
But in my mind I hear the same ol’ things you told me
                                        C
That I didn’t have the nerve it took to go

     F                                        C
I’ve taken back the key and I’ve unlocked the door
                                   G7
I realized that pride I can’t live on 
  C                                         G7
I guess that in my heart you were right all along
                                        C
That I didn’t have the nerve it took to go
