Am C D Am
I graduated school and set out my way to the world to chase a dream
Am C D Am
A simple twist of fate turned a twisted path of alcohol and methamphetamines
Am C D Am
It's the same old story I've heard a thousand times of lost souls and wicked deeds of men
Am C D Am
But on moonlit night down on bended knee, I swore I'd never go that path again
[Chorus]
G F Am
I spent a life time in that world
G F Am
I've seen some men go down real hard
G F Am C
I've heard them knockin' on my door
G Am
I just can't go down that road no more
G F Am
I just can't go down that road no more
[Verse 2]
Am C D Am
I did the best I could to try to hide my shame, the light of day it rarely fell on me
Am C D Am
I'd stay up nights on end howlin' at the moon, while hounds of hell they ran with me
Am C D Am
I don't know what it was that woke me from dream, it gave me back my life to save
Am C D Am
All my friends that continued down that road, well they're crazy or in a cell or in a grave
[Chorus]
G F Am
I spent a life time in that world
G F Am
I've seen some men go down real hard
G F Am C
I've heard them knockin' on my door
G Am
I just can't go down that road no more
G F Am
I just can't go down that road no more
[Bridge]
F Am
'Cause there's a darkness, darker than black
F E
So far gone, you can't make it back
[Chorus]
G F Am
I spent a life time in that world
G F Am
I've seen some men go down real hard
G F Am C
I've heard them knockin' on my door
G Am
I just can't go down that road no more
G F Am
I just can't go down that road no more
