I watched Cody play this acoustic in concert and im pretty sure this is correct. Feel free to comment!
[]Verse 1
[G]
My mother had a mexican boyfriend
[Cadd9] [G]
He stole a car once or twice before
[Cadd9] [G]
He got busted in the best budget inn
[Em7]
I found my way to the door
[G]
I couldn't take anymore
Verse 2
[G] [Cadd9] [G]
Lived with my sister and her second husband
[Cadd9] [G]
South of the river, north of grid
[Cadd9] [G]
I went to work with my cousin
[Em7]
Just like the rest of us kids
[Cadd9]
I tried to keep it all hid
Chorus:
[Am] [Em7]
It seemed so long ago
[Am] [Em7]
I swore I'd never let it show
[D]
but I kinda did
[Am] [Em7]
The years can slip away
[Am] [Em7]
When your trying to get away
[D]
and I never did
Verse 3
I got tired of country livin'
And tried to make a new batch of friends
It's hard to give when theres no givin'
I stuck my thumb in the wind
Nothing against my kin
Verse 4
I headed back to where I started
Pawned everything I could pawn
I guess I thought they'd be open hearted
They never knew I was gone
I just kept movin' along
Chorus
Verse 5
I worked the day and the night life
I drilled the bar and I drilled the ground
One for pay, one for the good times
One of 'em still hangin around
I put the other one down
Chorus
