 Dm
I'm all washed out by the side of the road
 Bb
Broken bones, Matilda left a note and a rose
       Dm                                             Bb
Saying "Baby, honey child, I love you so long but you deserve much better
      F
than me
            Dm                          Dm
So I'm just burning all around, all the miles on the road
          Bb                         Bb
And I'm never going back, and I'm never going home
          Dm                         Dm
I've been gone too long, I've been less right than wrong
           Bb                      F        C C C
I've lost so much blood in the falling out

            F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out
            Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house
            F
Until all I remember was burning away
            Bb                    C         Dm Dm Dm
And all I remember, you burnt it away

        Dm                      Dm
See for 10 long years I've been hustling around
          Bb                       Bb
Trying to wash the sins and sweat from my brow
          Dm                          Dm
Just trying to find a better life for me and my own
           Bb                            F
Just some rest for these tired working fingers

    Dm                         Dm
But nobody never gonna tell you the way
          Bb                      Bb
You gotta figure it out boys and suffer the rain
         Dm                          Dm
And the fools in the night, and the heat in the day
             Bb                F                Bb       C C C
When all you ever really wanted was someone to understand


Repeat same chours again, and then it's the same until

                    Dm                      F
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice
                 Bb                          F
You got Monroe hips, your poison lips and eyes
                   Dm                      F
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice
                 Bb                      F
You got open wounds in a young boy's pride  2x

            F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out
            Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house
            F
Until all I remember was burning away
            Bb                    C         Dm Dm Dm
And all I remember, you burnt it away
                         F
Well don't you take it so hard and baby don't you cry.
               Bb
Cross your hard heart and hope to die.
                    F
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied all the time.
                     Bb                          C
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.
