Intro:
E MajorE F#F# BB


Verse 1:
           BB
I'm from San Benito, Texas
          E MajorE
Down a dirty dusty road
            F#F#
There was sugarcane and cotton
            BB
How I used to watch it grow

Then we moved up to Dallas
         E MajorE
I remember I was young
           F#F#
I learned about the dollar
              BB
Looked down the barrel of a gun

Chorus:
            E MajorE
If you ask me where I'm going
                BB
I can't tell ya, 'cause I don't know
             E MajorE
But in my mind I see the valley
F#F#             BB
You should see the way it glows


Verse 2:
         BB
My daddy didn't know me
           E MajorE
My brother rolled the dice
        F#F#
My mama kept on working
           BB
And my sister paid a price

Darkness did surround me
           E MajorE
Trouble everywhere I turned
            F#F#
Then one day I started walking
            BB
Everything I've got, I earned


Chorus:
            E MajorE
If you ask me where I'm going
                BB
I can't tell ya, 'cause I don't know
             E MajorE
But in my mind I see the valley
F#F#             BB
You should see the way it glows


Verse 3:
         BB
Now you know my story
             E MajorE
I bet you got one like it too
            F#F#
May your curse become a blessing
              BB
There ain't nothing else to do
