One Step Ahead Of My Past
Hank Locklin

Intro: A-E-A

A                    D           A
The love that I've waited and longed for
               D       A 
Is here in my arms at last
     D                     A
But she doesn't know all about me 
                    E          A
I'm just one step ahead of my past

A                    D                 A
Now I'm walking the old straight and narrow 
                   D       A
But yesterday's coming up fast
            D                     A
Cause you can't keep people from talking 
                    E          A
I'm just one step ahead of my past

A          D
Cause when I played at love I made my mistakes 
        A   E         A   E
Where everyone could see
          A                        B
Now I'm wondering if she'll understand 
                   E
Is always haunting me

           A              D           A
Will the news break the heart of my darling
                           D        A
And close the door to my future at last
          D                  A
Till the day she knows all about me
               D          A
I'm one step ahead of my past
