Verse 1:
D#                                   G#
Sawing logs out Back Creek Way aint had a good rest in seven days
    D#                                          A#7
and late nights and long days just run together
D#                              G#
And cold and wet is all we get muddy, rainy, sloppy mess
    D#                   A#7                D#
it seems like it might stay this way forever

Verse 2:
D#                                          G#
Spent this winter in a run down Shack but it ain't mine and it it ain't Pat’s
    D#                                                              A#7
who just stays in and makes his livin turnin wrenches down the road
D#                                          G#
and the owners stay not far away in a family Cemetery grave
    D#                   A#7                    D#
and what we'd give to learn half of what they know


Chorus:
      G#
And a sharp left turn off 50 West
         D#
it's the old hold place where good folks
D#                                      A#7
rest after a long day of hauling freight
D#                                          G#
And I always wanted my own home there with two bedrooms and spiral
            D#               A#7                D#
stairs but live there in a tent cuz couldn't wait


Verse 3:
D#                                          G#
And Daniel's got one on the way with the girl he met just the other day
D#                                  A#7
four or five or six long years ago
     D#                                              G#
And time’s flown by since he brought her there and rocky times have' had their share
    D#                                A#7              D#
but she far from the girl I met when I was 15 years old


Verse 4:
G#                                D#
Joe's moved across the mountain he ain't slowed down on all his poutin about
D#                                  A#7
the things that he don't understand
D#                                           G#
he still says he don't want no children but Amanda’s ready and she's willing
D#              A#7                 D#
we all wonder how much she can stand


Chorus:
      G#
And a sharp left turn off 50 West
         D#
it's the old hold place where good folks
D#                                      A#7
rest after a long day of hauling freight
D#                                          G#
And I always wanted my own home there with two bedrooms and spiral
            D#               A#7                D#
stairs but live there in a tent cuz couldn't wait

Verse 5:
D#                                  G#
Randall sunk his daily driver and Uncle Johnny's fresh retired
D#                                       A#7
like you claimed he would for seven years
D#                                     G#
and he lets me sleep on his back lawn he gets drunk and carries on
       D#                                 A#7            D#
and I play tricks to get my kicks puttin water in his beer

he ain't came a damn short close enough to get a mention in this song
D#                                            G#
he spends his weekends out of state at the Shock Stone Mill up in PA#
D#                   A#7            D#
and burns away his troubles in a bong

And I always wanted my own home there with two bedrooms and spiral
            D#               A#7                D#
stairs but live there in a tent cuz couldn't wait


Verse 6:

And Uncle Donald and Aunt Joan are the heartbeat and the cornerstone
D#                                     A#7
Of everything that I have come to know
D#                                 G#
and all my days out in Gore Town spending weekends throwing down
D#               A#7               D#
me, my cousins and all of my kinfolk


Chorus:
      G#
And a sharp left turn off 50 West

And I sit her in contentment with my fate
