[Verse 1]
G D C C/B G
Everything inside of me is broken now
C G C
And now a piece falls out my sleeve in every single town
C G C
Now I pray each line I leave is the last one I ride down
G D C C/B G
And I will always love you and I will never be around
[Chorus]
C G
And I would pick a shallow grave over an empty cell
D C C/B G
Oh cause I have seen that time ain't too forgiving of a jail
C G C
And I could craft a pile of stone into a wishing well
G D C C/B G
But you aren't so naive my love, we know that life is hell
[Verse 2]
G D C C/B G
Highways wane and old freight trains burn in my ear
C G C
It became so loud at times its all that I could hear
C G C
But running from your troubles it wont make them disappear
G D C C/B G
I would waltz through fire my friend to have my conscious clear
[Chorus]
C G
And I would pick a shallow grave over an empty cell
D C C/B G
Oh cause I have seen that time ain't too forgiving of a jail
C G C
And I could craft a pile of stone into a wishing well
G D C C/B G
But you aren't so naive my love, we know that life is hell
[Verse 3]
G D C C/B G
And you would think that fate would grant a second chance
C G C
But she won't give the time of day or a awkward glance
C G C
She won't reduce my sentence under the circumstance
G D C C/B G
And I had placed my bets before the cards were in my hand
[Chorus]
C G
And I would pick a shallow grave over an empty cell
D C C/B G
Oh cause I have seen that time ain't too forgiving of a jail
C G C
And I could craft a pile of stone into a wishing well
G D C C/B G
But you aren't so naive my love, we know that life is hell
[Verse 4]
G D C C/B G
Everything inside of me is broken now
C G C
And now a piece falls out my sleeve in every single town
C G C
Now I pray each line I leave is the last one I ride down
G D C C/B G
And I will always love you and I will never be around
G D C C/B G
And I will always love you and I will never be around
