*note: The first six chord names aren't necessarily accurate, I just named them
after the two notes you are fretting
Intro:
GFEDC/EGFEDC/GG/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
Staring at the pictures of the runaways on the wall
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
Seems like, these days, you couldn't run away at all
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
Even if you did, what you got to run away tox
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
Just another drunk daddy with a white man's point of view
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
I can see you in my mind's eye, catching light
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
Sleep beside the river if we make it out of town tonight
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
You can strip in Portland from the day you turn sixteen
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
You got one thing to sell and benzodiazepine
DGmaj7Cadd9
Ten years ago I might have seen you dancing in a different light,
DGmaj7Cadd9
and offered up my help in different ways,
G/BC/E#
but those were different days
G/C/G#
Those were different days
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
Had a girl back home and we shared her single bed
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
When I whispered in her ear, she believed every word I said
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
If she didn't believe, she didn't dare give me slack
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
Or it was "Baby, I love you, get off of my goddamn back"
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
Time went by and I left and I left again
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
Jesus loves a sinner but the highway loves a sin
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/E
My daddy told me, I believe he told me true that:
G/BF#/AE/GD/F#C/G
"The right thing's always the hardest thing to do"
DGmaj7Cadd9
Ten years ago I might have stuck around for another night,
DGmaj7Cadd9
and used her in a thousand different ways,
G/BC/E#
but those were different days
G/BC/G#
Those were different days
DGmaj7Cadd9G
And the story's only mine to live and die with
DGmaj7Cadd9G
The answer's only mine to come across,
DGmaj7Cadd9G
but the ghosts that I got scared and I got high with
DCadd9
look a little lost
DGmaj7Cadd9
Ten years ago I might have thought I didn't have the right
DGmaj7Cadd9
To say the things an outlaw wouldn't say,
G/BC/E#
But those were different days
G/BC/G#
Those were different days
G/BC/E#
Those were different days
GFEDC/G
Here is a great live version of this song where I pulled the chords from:
