You slipped off your wedding band
And tucked it deep inside my hand
Forced a smile and headed towards the door
And as you walked out I heard you say
Things just haven't been going our way
And I don't love you anymore"
Now after the day I've had
I could've done without that
Chorus:
I'd rather watch the house we built
Burn to the ground
And stand out in the pouring rain
And let the good Lord strike me down
Than to sit here and watch you walk away
Anything would be better than your
Goodbye on a bad day
I've seen that look
I can always tell
It means stay away from me
And go straight to hell
That's exactly where I'll be
When you're gone
And after a day like this
My whole world's gone all wrong
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
You're the one thing I have left
When the whole world holds me down
Now how can I keep going
When you're not around
I'd rather watch the house we built
Burn to the ground
And stand out in the pouring rain
And let the good Lord strike me down
Than to sit here and have my wholw world walk away
Anything would be better than your
Goodbye on a bad day
