This is such a great song. I did my best job. This is about 80% accurate I wanna say.
Well, enjoy. And check out my SoundCloud where I'll probably cover this:

We wiped out all the C#Buffalo
Around the turn of the last Fmcentury,
And so it's F#factories and sawgrass,
Wheat fields and asphalt laid inAb front of me.
The Midwest feels like a C#hollow place
That we filled with love and Fmindustry.
And we're F#staring at the frozen ground in Goodwill suits,
AbSilent as the pastor reads the eulogy.
WellC# I wanted to Absee just a Bbmlittle Abbit of F#everything. Ab
Let me be.
Two blackbirds on a C#highway sign
Are laughing at Fmme at four in the Fm7morning.
They played the war drum F#out of time
So I'm Abnot sure where I've been marching.
I wanna be stroC#ng, Ab
But it's not Bbmeasy anymore. F#
I'm hoping I'm C#wrong. Ab Bbm F#
It's sixteen hours C#straight to home
From the heart of North FmMissouri,
And so I F#searched through my great-grandpop's memoirs
For the devil in my Abbloodstream.
Depression grabbed his C#throat
And choked the life out of him Fmslowly.
I've got the F#same blood coursing through my veins
And it'll come for me eAbventually.
I bet I'd be a fucking C#coward.
I bet I'd never have the Fmguts for war,
'Cause F#I can't spend another month away from here.
These Abfrantic rest stop phone calls don't get answered anymore.
But C#I, I wanted to Abknow if I could Bbmplease Abcome F#home. Ab
So let me know.

But it's not Bbmeasy anymore. F#
I'm hoping I'm C#wrong. Ab Bbm F#
I'm hoping I'm wrong.
C#I know how it feels to Abbe
At Bbmwar with a world
That never F#loved me.
