[Verse 1]
It's 2A.M. in my new home
This motel room
An ashtray full of lucky strikes
A half spent case of warm Bud Lite

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Countin' regrets
Fghtin' back tears
Retracin' steps
Gettin' nowhere

[Chorus]
Callin' your name, it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion where there's no love left
It's like tryna put smoke back... in this cigarette

[Verse 2]
Come sunrise, guess I'll check out
And ditch this town
Put a few more miles between us
And keep drivin' 'til I finally mend this broken trust

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Hangin' my hopes
On highway signs
If I lie here
I'll lose my mind

[Chorus]
Callin' your name, it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion where there's no love left
It's like tryna put smoke... back in this cigarette

[Bridge]
I may never know
Your reasons why
But someday I'm gonna see the good
In your goodbye

[Chorus]
Callin' your name, it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion where there's no love left
It's like tryna put smoke... back in this cigarette

Jason Aldean

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
