As Far As You Could Lyrics by Charles Kelley

2022

[Verse 1]
It's why I moved to Nashville
Why I almost left
You made me feel alive
But you scared me half to death
Thought I couldn't hit that stage
Without you runnin' through my veins
Now I sing the songs I always have
But the meaning's bound to change

[Chorus]
'Cause you took me high, but you sure as hell brought me down
We said goodbye, but I'm gonna see you around
And to tell the truth, I thought I never would
But it's time I finally put you down for good
'Cause you've taken me as far as you could

[Verse 2]
You gave me the courage
The night I met my wife
You helped me make her laugh
'Til you helped me make her cry
You started out a friend
Turned into somethin' else
Now I like who I am
With you sittin' on the shelf

[Chorus]
'Cause you took me high, but you sure as hell brought me down
We said goodbye, but I'm gonna see you around
And to tell the truth, I thought I never would
But it's time I finally put you down for good
'Cause you've taken me as far as you could

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, woah

[Bridge]
You're a part of my story
Good times I won't forget
I can say I'm glad you're gone
But can't say I wish we never met

[Chorus]
'Cause you took me high, but sure as hell brought me down
You put up a good fight, but look who's standin' now
Oh, to tell the truth, I thought I never would
But it's time I finally put you down for good
Had to almost lose it all before I understood
That you've taken me as far as you could
