[INTRO]
Bm G D E
G D A D
[VERSE 1]
D G
Well I never was one for trouble but I reckon it was for me
D A
When I was just a little boy Pap put me on his knee
D G
And he said, "Dear son, steer clearly on the high road you should stay
D A D
'Cause down there in that valley, boy them detours make you stray"
Bm G D E
He said don't waste tomorrow on today's idle time
G D A D
It's hard time living on the backroads of your mind
[CHORUS]
G D
On the backroads of my mind where the turns are mostly blind
A
Reckoning by rote and memory
G D A Bm
Well, they've long been neglected and lately are in decline
G D A D
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
[VERSE 2]
D G
Now the years flew by so swiftly and I can't say they was kind
D A
The old home and my family, I left it all behind
D G
For a life of hopeful fortune on the highways I did roam
D A D
But like so many dead end roads, they left me all alone
Bm G D E
I ain't never been to Jackson where trouble's so easy to find
G D A D
I've mourned my fair share here on the backroads of my mind
[CHORUS]
G D
On the backroads of my mind where the turns are mostly blind
A
Reckoning by rote and memory
G D A Bm
Well, they've long been neglected and lately are in decline
G D A D
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
[INSTRUMENTAL]
D G D A
D G D A D
[CHORUS]
G D
On the backroads of my mind where the turns are mostly blind

Well, they've long been neglected and lately are in decline
