Dark And Dirty Mile Chords

(ver. 3)
Jason Boland
Capo 2: 
Verse 1:
  A                           
I refuse to spend the rest of 
     D  
my days trying to get away 
     A                  
from all the things I did 
            E
when I knew not what I had done

      A                         
Oh so young and tired of love 
                  D 
was not an item my own 
                 A                         
bottle always refused to hear them tell me 
          E
not to stare into the sun

A                               
This pornographic place told me 
    D                            A
a body was to be feared and then wanted at the same 
                 E
time man, if you could figure how. 

A                               
Fear because it was the pathway
 D                              A
to a mortal sin and then wanted because we'll all be dust a 
E                    A
few short years from now.

Chorus:
E                                    D
It's a broken hearted world that we inherit
E                            D
All we're told is to do sit and bear it
A
For a little while, 
D                      A
On this dark and dirty mile. 

V2 

A                          
Took awhile at least for me 
       D 
to live enough 'till I believed in 
  A                      
none of what I heard and less than 
E
half of what I saw
A                  
Mark the days have come and gone 
        D
some are lost and some are wrong 
    A
and way back home we'll figure out 
   E
a place to place it all 


Chorus:
E                                    D
It's a broken hearted world that we inherit
E                            D
All we're told is to do sit and bear it
A
For a little while, 
D                          A
On this dark and dirty mile
D                          A
We're all family here on trial
D                       A      D
On this dark and dirty mile 

Instrumental with verse A, D, finishing D, E, A

V3
A
Finally I realized that 
D
knowledge better make you wise
    A
and all the knots you tied 
     E
will leave you in a ball. 
A
Helpless as when we were born 
  D
thread barren and holy worn 
    A
out shivering as summer 
          E
gives way to early fall 

Chorus:
E                                    D
It's a broken hearted world that we inherit
E                            D
All we're told is to do sit and bear it
A
For a little while, 
D                          A
On this dark and dirty mile
D                          A
We're all family here on trial
D                       A      D
On this dark and dirty mile
