[Verse 1]
She said she was headed over to see her mama
To try to clear her head, she needed a little time
Said, “We could talk more about it later if you wanna”
Walked out the door, swore everything was gonna be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s been four days and three nights of whiskey
And I ain’t heard a word from her and that’s what gets me

[Chorus]
So tell me, how far does a goodbye go?

Is it down to a corner bar?
Or out of town in a getaway car?
If it’s on a map, this cowboy’s gotta know
Is it a couple miles away coming up the road
Or on a midnight train on a runaway track?
How far does a goodbye go ’til it don’t come back?

[Verse 2]
I might’ve been alright if I’d seen her leaving coming (Leaving coming)
Instead of sitting here striking up another front porch Marlboro Light
(Striking up another Marlboro Light)
Is she big sky, fast lane gone? Got the horses running?
Looks like I’m on the wrong side of riding off into the sunset this time

[Chorus]
Tell me, how far does a goodbye go?
Is it down to a corner bar?
Or out of town in a getaway car?
If it’s on a map, this cowboy’s gotta know
Is it a couple miles away coming up the road
Or on a midnight train on a runaway track?
How far does a goodbye go ’til it don’t come back?

[Post-Chorus]
‘Til it don’t come back

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s been four days and three nights of whiskey
And I ain’t heard a word from her and that’s what gets me

[Chorus]
So tell me, how far does a goodbye go?
Is it a couple miles away coming up the road
Or on a midnight train on a runaway track?
How far does a goodbye go ’til it don’t come back?

[Outro]
‘Til it don’t come back
