                       C
I rode a horse named Whiskey,
I thought I could trust
          Am                       G
'Til she pinned her ears back and just
                       F
like a whip crack she left me in the dust
                      C
I was cruisin' on my Harley, enjoyin' the breeze
           Am                  G
I got hit head on and thrown, lord knows it
           F
should've killed me

Chorus:
                   C                       F
Every scar has a story, and it leaves its mark
                             G
Guess you could say I'm the king of takin'
                F
things way too far
                  C
I thought I knew pain, ain't nothin' I ain't been
    F
through
                 Am  G            F
But when I met you, girl, I fell hard
                   C   G             C
Every scar has a story, just ask my heart

I remember that mornin', I saw your face
Turnin' down a side street
Somethin' inside me said don't let her get away
And those nights that followed, they still haunt me
'Cause they were some of the best
I'll never forget how good it used to be

Chorus:
Every scar has a story and it leaves its mark
Guess you could say I'm the king of takin'
things way too far
I thought I knew pain
Ain't nothin' I ain't been through
But when I met you, girl, I fell hard
Every scar has a story, just ask my heart

F                              G
They say old wounds heal with time and
they get better
         F                                G
But the hurts you left on me will last forever

Chorus:
Every scar has a story and it leaves its mark
Guess you could say I'm the king of takin'
things way too far
I thought I knew pain
Ain't nothin' I ain't been through
But when I met you, girl, I fell hard
Every scar has a story, just ask my heart
Every scar has a story, just ask my heart
Just ask my heart
