M^Amama's crying in the back room she won't let nobody in There's b^Gill's to pay and mouths to feed and d^Amaddys drunk again R^Amain comes through the trailer roof and fills the buckets to the brim Betw^Geen the death and cigarettes a childhood gives ^Amin

^AmAnd out of trailer parks ^Dmand foreclosed homes I c^Gut my teeth so bittersweet o^Cut on the road B^Cut now I'm getting old and it's so h^Dmard to settle down Leave an^Gother low down city to an^Eother goddamn town^Am

INMSTRUMENTAL: Am G F G Am G F G Am Am VERSE:

^AmLay down upon the barren earth and rest your weary eyes Dive d^Geep into your memory and l^Amock yourself inside R^Amemember how the roses grew when watered with sweet tea Those so^Guthern nights those golden days you layed Yourself besides ^Amme

VERSE:

^AmI'm bound for b^Cetter days and h^Amope these wounds will h^Deal But sc^Gars last till the bitter end when fl^Cesh breaks under steal At night I like awake and I w^Dmish I would've stayed O^Gut on the banks and lowman road ^E Till the end of my d^Amays

CHORUS:

Y^Dmou'll find a new way ^Amand a life in tr^Cuth And you finally will s^Gee dear God let me ^Dmbe You go your way ^Amand I'll go m^Cine I won't cross the Great Div^Gide Although somet^Dmimes in the morning w^Amhen it hurts the m^Cost ^CI hear you calling me D^Gear God let me be Y^Dmou'll find a new way ^Amand a life in tr^Cuth And you finally will s^Gee dear G^Eod let me ^Ambe

INMSTRUMENTAL: Am G F G Am G F G Am Am VERSE:

^AmSo if you see my darlin' won't you send my love S^Gix months to the day and she is ^Amall I'm thinking of ^AmSee to it she's got a coat against the winters cold A f^Gireplace to keep her warm and rest her w^Ameary souls

VERSE:

Are bound by bl^Cood and fire ^Dmuntil the very end A he^Gart that's bound by wild desire w^Cill not give in So lay yourself down easy in the b^Dmitter root and pine Let the tr^Gials of this w^Emorld make you stronger Or p^Eass you ^Ambye

CHORUS:

Y^Amou'll find a ^Dmnew way ^Amand a life in tr^Cuth And you finally will s^Gee dear God let me ^Dmbe You go your way ^Amand I'll go m^Cine I won't cross the Great Div^Gide Although sometimes ^Dmin the morning w^Amhen it hurts the m^Cost ^CI hear you calling me D^Gear God let me be Y^Dmou'll find a new way ^Amand a life in tr^Cuth And you finally will s^Gee dear God let me ^Dmbe
