Intro: G Verse 1: G C I live on a country road in the town where I was born. G D I wake up every morning to the birds singing their songs. G C G I get out of bed and walk over to my window. D C I watch the birds fly and think D G Will they ever be that happy again? Verse 2: Go down stairs to find the wife that I won. Sit down at the table and stare at my aged hands of 81. Open up the paper to the obituaries. I look at the faces and see if I recognize any. Chorus: C G This is my life as a suspicious man. C G D When everything's been stripped away from these hands. G C Everyone I loved has come and gone. G D G And to think, maybe I'll be the next one. Verse 3: [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/r/rust/389351.html ] Get a call today from my only son. He tells me all about the city and says, "I'm sorry dad, but I just had to run." "I know i didn't turn out the way you wanted me to." "And I hope you still love me the way that I love you." Chorus: C G This is my life as an angry man. C G D People disobey everything I say anyway they can. G C Everything I've done has gone to dirt. G D G And when I try my best I just get hurt. Verse 4: I go outside to buy me some time. I sit on the back porch with a beer in hand and my life in mind. Think about all the people I pushed under me. And I guess the only on eto blame is me. Chorus: C G This is my life as a wasted man. C G D Pushing everyone away so I can be the one to grab that helping hand. G C In my life I've lost everyone I love G D G From the things I've said or the things I've done. Ending: G |
