An Exception to the Rule Dwight Yoakam
An Exception To The Rule
By Dwight Yoakam
[G] [Cadd9] [G] [Cadd9]
Cadd9 - X32033
[G]Soft clouds all drift [Cadd9]away
And bright [G]sunshine never [Cadd9]stays
Warm [G]afternoons turn [Cadd9]rainy, dark and [D]cruel
A candle's [G]glowing light will [Cadd9]die
` G Cadd9
The purest voices often lie
and with [G]love I've found that all the same are [D]true
Chorus:
Even [C]though I should know [D]better
I guess [G]we could [G/F#]maybe [Em]try
There [C]is the risk of [D]looking like a [G]fool
Aww, but I've [C]got a lucky [D]feeling
Just a [G]hunch, don't [D/F#]ask me [Em]why
You [C]might be an exception to the [D]rule
Sweet dreams can't be recalled
High hopes collapse and fall
As the sky keeps turning sadder shades of blue
The strongest promise finally breaks
And only leads to bigger aches
Are lessons that I learned at sorrow's school
Chorus
Soft clouds all drift away
and bright sunshine never stays
but you might be an exception to the rule
