Em Em-D-C B, D
well the wind it is a’blowin and I haven’t seen the sun
I ain’t seen much anything about a month or so
coulda been much different, yea my momma told me so
I shoulda never listened to the things you didn’t know
Chorus:
I don’t think I’ll ever make it home
swim that muddy water
I don’t think I’ll ever make it home
feel the bright sunshine
I don’t think I’ll ever make it home
swim that muddy water
I don’t think I’ll ever make it home
feel the bright sunshine
(Kazoo Solo)
well I had a chance to be someone I never been before
took his clothes and wallet and I left him on the floor
I always thought it would be so damn easy to be free
sing myself a different tune when the man came down on me
(Chorus)
(Guitar Solo)
well the bars are old’n this room is cold’n I’m outta cigarettes
sleep is so elusive and my clothes are soakin wet
I think about my sinnin as I make my final trek
it wont make no difference with that rope around my neck
(Chorus)
