Capo IV
D
I built a fire up on a hill
G
Sat in the woods and drank my fill
D
Talked to God all night
G
Took another shot and set me right
A D
Then I walked down to the road
G D
filled a beer can full of .22 holes
A
And I said good-bye
G
yeah I said good-bye
A D
I''d go back but I can''t go home
G D
the river is up and the road is closed
A D G
and there ain''t no telephone in my mother''s house
A
and all the lights are out
D A G D
down on the rural route
There ain''t much of nothing left
Of this place where I became myself
Ghost and memories
I walk on by but they follow me
I seen Penny on down the road
Asked him if he''d seen my brother
He just said no
Well guess I better go
I built a fire up on a hill
Sat in the woods and drank my fill
I talked to God all night
Took another shot and set me right
Then I just walked away
Ain''t nothing here I wanna remember anyway
At least not today
Chorus x 2
