"Great American Sharpshooter" lyrics

"Great American Sharpshooter"

So you think of what it could've been
When time is all you've lost, it keeps burning through your head
Now you fall asleep standing but lie awake in bed
Watch the clock drag on and think of what you should've said

Oh, it's for the better your better half's gone
It's okay, you didn't need her anyway

And I don't wanna hear you say nobody can take her place
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
And what more can I say, you don't need her anyway
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

And so you think of how it should've been
And it's just over, keeps going through your head
You're hearing all those words time and time again
Watch the phone all night and think of what you should've said

Oh, it's for the better your better half's gone
It's okay, you didn't need her anyway

And I don't wanna hear you say nobody can take her place
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
And what more can I say, you don't need her anyway
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

I don't wanna hear you say nobody can take her place
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
And what more can I say, you don't need her anyway
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
