Billy Ray Cyrus - Cover To Cover

[1st Verse]
G
He tore out the pages one by one
G
They went in the fire when he was done
C G D G
Watching the paper burn was fun while it lasted

G
He found her diary in the drawer
G
Promised he’d read one page no more
C G D G
But a part of him was sure he’d read past it

[1st Chorus]
C Am
He saw a name he recognized
C Am
He saw the truth with his own eyes
G F Am D
How a restless heart can find brand new love
G
She never really said goodbye
Em
Two hundred pages told him why
C D G
And he cried cover to cover

[2nd Verse]
G
Sometimes they lock them with a key
G
Serves him right hers would have to be
C G D G
In a place that’s guaranteed he would find it

G
He watched them meet on page fifteen
G
Describing a man he’d never seen
C G D G
Her heart going back and forth between aware and blinded

[2nd Chorus]
C Am
You know it could mean a broken heart
C Am
He was a fool to even start
G F Am D
But with every page he reads he turns another
G
In her own hand now leather bound
Em
He just could not put it down
C D G Em
So he cried cover to cover
C D G
Yes he cried cover to cover
