Verse 1: Am E You left me alone, you left me for dead Am E Ripped out my heart and smiled as I slowly bled Am E And I’m crippled, and I’m sprawled out on the track Am E And you walk away without even looking back Am G I struggle each and every day
C Bb Search through my pain for the words to say Am G I don’t want to live in this hell, but I must C Bb F ‘Cause you left me, and I’m old, wounded and dangerous Verse 2: Am E Your ghost chases me through whiskey soaked dreams Am E I guess our past is not what it seemed to me Am E And my future is black as night, a pointless charade Am E Growing darker still as your memory fades Am G God I don’t know why I even try C Bb I should just walk off the bridge and float out with the tide Am G Left my soul slowly turn to rust C Bb F ‘Cause you left me old, wounded and dangerous Verse 3: Am E But somehow, somehow I know I will survive Am E Even though my hope is near death, it still alive Am E But no matter where I go in the world, no matter how far Am E My heart will lay in tatters, and I’ll wear your scars Am G Living well ain’t no God damned revenge C Bb And pain isn’t cured with a Wild Turkey binge Am G For me it was love and perfect trust C Bb F Now you left me, and I’m old, wounded and dangerous
