[Intro]
G D/F# Em7 D/F# x2
[Verse 1]
G
Woke up this morning
The house was cold
D/F#
Checked the furnace she wasn't burning
Em7
Went out and hopped in my old Ford
D/F#
Hit the engine but she ain't a turning
G
Given each other some hard lessons lately
D/F#
But we aren't learning
Em7 D/F# G
Same sad story thats a fact
G A G D/F# Em7 D/F#
Once step up and two steps back
[Verse 2]
G D/F#
Bird on a wire outside my motel room but he is not singing
Em7
Girl in white outside a church in June
D/F#
But the church bells they are not ringing
G
Sitting here in this bar tonight
D/F#
And all I'm thinkin' is
Em7 D/F# G
How the same old story same old act
G A G D/F# Em7 D/F#
One step up and two steps back
[Verse 3]
G
It's the same thing night all night
D/F#
Who's wrong and baby who's right
Em7
Another fight and I slam the door on
D/F#
Another battle in our dirty little war
G D/F#
When I look at myself I don't see the man I wanted to be
Em7 D/F# G
Somewhere along the line I slipped off track
G A G D/F# Em7 D/F#
Living one step up and two steps back
[Verse 4]
G
There's a girl across the bar
D/F#
I get the message she's sending
Em7
Mmm she ain't looking too married
D/F#
We well honey I pretended
G
Last night I dreamed I held you in my arms
D/F#
The music was never ending
Em7 D/F# G
We danced as the evening sky faded to black
G A G
Moving one step up and two steps up
G
(One step up and two steps back)
Em7
One step up and two steps back
D/F#
(One step up and two steps back)
G
One step up and two steps back
D/F#
(One step up and two steps back)
Em7 D/F#
One step up and two steps back
(G)
Ohhh baby we're moving
[Solo]

One step up and two steps back

One step up and two steps back
G D/F# Em7 D/F#
Mmm one step up and two steps back
G D/F# Em7 D/F#
(One step up and two steps back)
G D/F# Em7 D/F# x2
