[Verse 1]
Sunburn on the tailgate
Dust on my boots
I drove past your house slow
Like I still had a reason to choose
Your name in my cup holder
Your ring in my mind
I kept score of the damage
One mile at a time
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the radio’s crying
And I don’t even flinch
I learned how to smile
Right on the edge of the cliff
Still one thing hurts more
Than the rest of the fight
[Chorus]
On the back nine of a broken heart (yeah)
I’m still chasing your shadow in the dark
It gets rough, but I know where you are
I’m still playing through the scars
On the back nine of a broken heart (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Beer can on the porch rail
Rain on the hood
I tried to build a new life
But it never got good
Your boots by the doorway
Your laugh in the hall
Every little good thing
Still trips when I fall
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the night feels wider
And the fence line bends
I keep telling my pride
This is where the ending ends
But that old hurt circles
Like it’s circling back
[Chorus]
On the back nine of a broken heart (yeah)
I’m still chasing your shadow in the dark
It gets rough, but I know where you are
I’m still playing through the scars
On the back nine of a broken heart (yeah)
[Bridge]
If I miss that green again
Let me miss it clean
Let the whole world see
What you did to me
I’m not done, I’m not done
I’m not out yet
I still swing at the moon
With a busted silhouette
[Final Chorus]
On the back nine of a broken heart (yeah)
I’m still chasing your shadow in the dark
It gets rough, but I know where you are
I’m still playing through the scars
On the back nine of a broken heart (yeah)
