Intro: G Em D G Verse 1: G Little church on William Street Em They head to tear it down G My brother calls once in a while Em But he don't come around G I hear they changed my high school's name Em Can't remember what it's called D I guess I'm a stranger in this place G It's not my hometown anymore
Chorus: G So I drink my whiskey straight Em And I take my coffee black D When I ran away from home G I never thought I'd make it back G And my mother prayed for me Em Each night before she went to sleep D I wish that she was here G So she could comfort me Verse 2: G Things you wish would stay the same Em It seems like they're the first to change G Fields we used to run and laugh in Em Now they're someone's real estate G And everyone I used to know Em Is like a ghost to me these days D And I don't think I have much else G That they could take away Chorus: G So I drink my whiskey straight Em And I take my coffee black D When I ran away from home G I never thought I'd make it back G And my mother prayed for me Em Each night before she went to sleep D I wish that she was here G So she could comfort me Chorus: G So I drink my whiskey straight Em And I take my coffee black D When I ran away from home G I never thought I'd make it back G And my mother prayed for me Em Each night before she went to sleep D I wish that she was here G So she could comfort me Outro: G Em Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh D G Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh G Em Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh D G Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
