American Aquarium - Road to nowhere

^EmHer mother came and^G packed her bags an^Cd drove her off ^Gto nowhere In the shadows of her second father's shoulders she just stood there ^EmCry^Din^Cg ^EmShe^D's^G crying ^EmThen the wicked lies rolled ^Goff her tongue like ^Cwar-bound soldiers ^Gmarching ^EmAnd she ran from the ^Gtruth like wounded ^Cmen run from the ^Gdarkness ^EmWhe^Dn ^Cthey're dying ^EmShe^D's^G dying

^CAnd I told her I loved her ^GAnd she told me s^Emhe's leaving ^CJust like every other person in my ^Glife that I've ^Embelieved in ^CAnd as she slammed the door and walked away I turned on my ^Gradio ^COoooh no And I played her a dancing ^Dsong And got her ^Ghome

^EmAnd I had more ^Gfaith in her than her ^Cmother had in ^GJesus ^EmBut like Judas she ^Grebuked my name for ^Cjewels and silver^G pieces ^EmA we^Ddding^C ring ^EmA we^Dddi^Gng ring ^EmAnd in my darkest ^Ghour her eyes ^Cfilled with ^Gdesperation ^EmHer words were sharp and her ^Gsword was swift, Lord ^CI have been for^Gsaken ^EmBy ^Dmy^C one true love ^EmMy ^Don^Ge true love

^CAnd I told her I loved her ^GAnd she told me s^Emhe's leaving ^CJust like every other person in my ^Glife that I've ^Embelieved in ^CAnd as she slammed the door and walked away I turned on my ^Gradio ^COoooh no And I played her a dancing ^Dsong And got her ^Ghome

^EmAs I lie ^Galone tonight in the^C bed we built and ^Gonce shared ^EmI wonder where you ^Gare, who you're ^Cwith, do you think that^G he cares ^EmAbo^Dut^C you ^EmAbo^Dut^G you ^EmNow I am not a ^Ggodly man, my ^Croad's twisted and ^Gsinful ^EmBut to have you back, I'd ^Gbow my head and sing a ^CSouthern Baptist ^Ghymnal ^EmHal^Dle^Clujah ^EmHal^Dlel^Cujah ^EmHal^Dle^Clu^Gjah ^EmHal^Dle^Glujah
