A

[Verse 1]
A
I was battle-torn and worn
                           D         A
I was ravaged by scores of arrows
Bm
  Thought about it for a little while
                                     A
Realized that I could walk away some day
A
A rack of ties, a travel mug
                                D          A
A telephone, a briefcase filled with papers
Bm
  I thought about it for a little while
                                 A
Realized I could leave the way I came

[Chorus]
      D            E
Oh my goodness, oh my my
                     A
Could've happened to me

[Verse 2]
A
At a border town I learned to keep my hat brim down
               D           A
And never talk to strangers
Bm
  Thought about for a little while
                              A
Realized I was only a drop in rain
A
A rack of ties, a travel mug
                            D          A
A telephone, a briefcase full of papers
Bm
  I thought about it for a little while
                                A
Realized I was only a link in a chain gang, babe
         D           Dm
I always took their advice
               A
I watched them lay down on the altar
                F#
Just like human sacrifices

[Chorus]
      D            E
Oh my goodness, oh my my
                     A
Could've happened to me
      D            E
Oh my goodness, oh my my
                     A
Could've happened to me
      D            E
Oh my goodness, oh my my
                     A
Could've happened to me
