Dm
I'm all washed out by the side of the road
Bb
Broken bones, Matilda left a note and a rose
Dm Bb
Saying "Baby, honey child, I love you so long but you deserve much better
F
than me
Dm Dm
So I'm just burning all around, all the miles on the road
Bb Bb
And I'm never going back, and I'm never going home
Dm Dm
I've been gone too long, I've been less right than wrong
Bb F C C C
I've lost so much blood in the falling out
F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out
Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house
F
Until all I remember was burning away
Bb C Dm Dm Dm
And all I remember, you burnt it away

Dm Dm
See for 10 long years I've been hustling around
Bb Bb
Trying to wash the sins and sweat from my brow
Dm Dm
Just trying to find a better life for me and my own
Bb F
Just some rest for these tired working fingers
Dm Dm
But nobody never gonna tell you the way
Bb Bb
You gotta figure it out boys and suffer the rain
Dm Dm
And the fools in the night, and the heat in the day
Bb F Bb C C C
When all you ever really wanted was someone to understand
Repeat same chours again, and then it's the same until
Dm F
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice
Bb F
You got Monroe hips, your poison lips and eyes
Dm F
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice
Bb F
You got open wounds in a young boy's pride 2x
F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out
Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house
F
Until all I remember was burning away
Bb C Dm Dm Dm
And all I remember, you burnt it away
F
Well don't you take it so hard and baby don't you cry.
Bb
Cross your hard heart and hope to die.
F
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied all the time.
Bb C
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.
