F F G
Ten years in jail was the sentence that they handed down
F F G
I didn't like the odds that I would last that long
F F G
They turned their backs and I was gone gone gone
F F G
Just turned 18 and I'm lookin at some real hard time
F F G
Now I'm seeing things in my rearview mirror
F G F
Now it's just me and these white lines
CHORUS
G F
Lord only knows where I'm goin
G F
Can't remember the places I've been
G F F G F
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
G F
I can't believe how bright the stars are shinin'
G F F
And I can't recall the last time I looked into the sky
G F F
And it seems to me if I can make it cross the county line
G F
Maybe my life will turn out fine
F F G
