Capo 4

G                        Em 
Speak of the devil, in he walks
G                              Em
It's like his ears burn when I talk
C                              D
Pushed in a gutter, stuck in a rut
D                                            Em   G
Waitin' for the next turn of the knife in my gut

G                     Em
Just tryin' to do whatever
G                           Em
To somehow make myself feel better
C                        D
But I guess I got you to thank
D                               Em
Broken like the bottle that you drank


Chorus:
             C              Em 
But it won't always be this way
         D              Em
It won't always be this way
           C                   G
Don't know how many times I'll say
         D              Em    G
It won't always be this way

Feels like I'm drownin' in a dream
With a breath of air just out of my reach
And I'm kickin' as hard as I can
God, I wish you were a better man

Chorus

So don't you cry my little one
Don't talk about what your daddy done
Like a bird we'll fly away someday
And I promise I'll plan our getaway

Chorus

Steel solo

Chorus

Outro:
Got down on my knees to pray
It won't always be this way
'Cause my new life starts today
It won't always be this way
