Miss Blonde Hair

Verse 1]

You said, “Show me sunset when you’re upset”

Like you were the one who’d never make me regret

We watched that Texas sky go red

While you had one foot out and a lie in your head

Now your taillights are cutting through the gravel

And I’m done trying to solve your little travel

You can take your promises, take your sad goodbyes

I’ve got a better view with you out of my sight

Don’t come calling when the night gets long

You made your choice, now go on, go on

I don’t care, go with Miss Blonde Hair

Let her hear the same sweet lines you left here

Let her ride shotgun, let her play pretend

Like you’re the kind of man who knows how this ends

I’ll watch the sun sink, raise a glass in the air

I don’t care, go with Miss Blonde Hair

She can have your jacket and your Friday nights

Your half-truth grin and your “baby, you’re right”

She can learn how you disappear

Then show back up when the coast looks clear

I’m not breaking a thing, I’m not begging you back

I’m putting on red and taking my life back

Your name’s in the dust where your tires spun

And I’m not the girl you thought you could outrun

Don’t come knocking when she sees the truth

You traded gold for a shiny new excuse

I don’t care, go with Miss Blonde Hair

Let her hear the same sweet lines you left here

Let her ride shotgun, let her play pretend

Like you’re the kind of man who knows how this ends

I’ll watch the sun sink, raise a glass in the air

I don’t care, go with Miss Blonde Hair

You said the sunset made you feel alive

Guess you need a new girl for that kind of sky

But this town knows the truth, and so do I

You can keep the sunset—I’ll keep my pride

I don’t care, go with Miss Blonde Hair

Let her have the front seat, let her have your stare

Let her ride shotgun, let her play pretend

While I take the long way home with my best friends

The sky’s turning gold, and I’m already there

I don’t care, go with Miss Blonde Hair

Show me sunset? Baby, I’m good right here

I don’t care—go with Miss Blonde Hair
