Pack Your Heart

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

You packed up your suitcase Tuesday

Left your boots by the door

I watched your taillights fading

Down that gravel road once more

You said we'd ride this thing together

Through the mud and through the rain

But now I'm holding empty pockets

And the ache that won't go tame

Pre-Chorus

And I keep replaying all the ways

We let this whole thing fall apart

Chorus

Pack your heart in paper boxes

Drive it past the county line

Some love's a river we can't ford

Some love just runs out of time

Clear the porch swing, clear the memories

Clear the hurt right off this land

Some love breaks like summer thunder

And we both just let it land

Verse 2

You said goodbye like a stranger

Not the one who knew my name

I burned the letters by the stovepipe

Watched the smoke curl up in flames

Your guitar leaned in the corner

Half a song we never wrote

Now the silence sings too loudly

And it's stuck inside my throat

Pre-Chorus

And morning comes without your coffee

And the house don't feel the same

Chorus

Pack your heart in paper boxes

Drive it past the county line

Some love's a river we can't ford

Some love just runs out of time

Clear the porch swing, clear the memories

Clear the hurt right off this land

Some love breaks like summer thunder

And we both just let it land

Bridge

Take the church bells and the fiddle strings

Take the blue of summer skies

Take the good years and the bad years

Took the best of my goodbyes

Chorus

Pack your heart in paper boxes

Drive it past the county line

Some love's a river we can't ford

Some love just runs out of time

Clear the porch swing, clear the memories

Clear the hurt right off this land

Some love breaks like summer thunder

And we both just let it land

Hook

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh
