VERSE:
A minorAm
Mama`s crying in the back room she won`t let nobody in
G+G A minorAm
There`s bill`s to pay and mouths to feed and daddys drunk again
A minorAm
Rain comes through the trailer roof and fills the buckets to the brim
G+G A minorAm
Between the death and cigarettes a childhood gives in
A minorAm DmDm
And out of trailer parks and foreclosed homes
G+G C majorC
I cut my teeth so bittersweet out on the road
C majorC DmDm
But now I`m getting old and it`s so hard to settle down
G+G E MajorE A minorAm
Leave another low down city to another goddamn town
INMSTRUMENTAL:
A minorAm G+G FF G+G
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm A minorAm
VERSE:
A minorAm
Lay down upon the barren earth and rest your weary eyes
G+G A minorAm
Dive deep into your memory and lock yourself inside
A minorAm
Remember how the roses grew when watered with sweet tea
G+G
Those southern nights those golden days you layed
A minorAm
Yourself besides me
VERSE:
A minorAm C majorC A minorAm D MajorD
I`m bound for better days and hope these wounds will heal
G+G C majorC
But scars last till the bitter end when flesh breaks under steal
DmDm
At night I like awake and I wish I would`ve stayed
G+G
Out on the banks and lowman road
E MajorE A minorAm
Till the end of my days
CHORUS:
DmDm A minorAm C majorC
You`ll find a new way and a life in truth
G+G DmDm
And you finally will see dear God let me be
A minorAm C majorC
You go your way and I`ll go mine
G+G
I won`t cross the Great Divide
DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Although sometimes in the morning when it hurts the most
C majorC
I hear you calling me
G+G
Dear God let me be
DmDm A minorAm C majorC
You`ll find a new way and a life in truth
G+G E MajorE A minorAm
And you finally will see dear God let me be

VERSE:
A minorAm
So if you see my darlin` won`t you send my love
G+G A minorAm
Six months to the day and she is all I`m thinking of
A minorAm
See to it she`s got a coat against the winters cold
G+G A minorAm
A augmentedA fireplace to keep her warm and rest her weary souls
VERSE:
C majorC DmDm
Are bound by blood and fire until the very end
G+G C majorC
A augmentedA heart that`s bound by wild desire will not give in
DmDm
So lay yourself down easy in the bitter root and pine
G+G E minorEm
Let the trials of this world make you stronger
E MajorE A minorAm
Or pass you bye
CHORUS:
A minorAm DmDm A minorAm C majorC
You`ll find a new way and a life in truth
G+G DmDm
And you finally will see dear God let me be
A minorAm C majorC
You go your way and I`ll go mine
G+G
I won`t cross the Great Divide
DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Although sometimes in the morning when it hurts the most
C majorC
I hear you calling me
G+G
Dear God let me be
DmDm A minorAm C majorC
You`ll find a new way and a life in truth
G+G DmDm
And you finally will see dear God let me be
