G C D
Ten years in jail was the sentence that they handed down
G C D
I didn't like the odds that I would last that long
G C D
They turned their backs and I was gone gone gone
G C D
Just turned 18 and I'm lookin at some real hard time
G C D
Now I'm seeing things in my rearview mirror
G D G
Now it's just me and these white lines
CHORUS
D G
Lord only knows where I'm goin
D C
Can't remember the places I've been
D C G D G
Tell me if I'll ever make it home again whoa-o home again
Apart from these troubles mother's all I leave behind
Says I remind her of my father but hell if I know
He left town when I was 3 years old
She did the best she could I can't help but feel I'm doin her wrong
She'll be much better off now that I'm gone
I don't much feel like hangin around
Chorus
D G
I can't believe how bright the stars are shinin'
D G C
And I can't recall the last time I looked into the sky
D G C
And it seems to me if I can make it cross the county line
D C
Maybe my life will turn out fine
G C D
