Am    Amadd9   C           Csus2 F
I grew up in a town with one red light
Am       Amadd9    C       Csus2      F
How that train would rattle me in the middle of the night
    Am      Amadd9 C    Csus2   F
But I slept like a baby in that bed
F                  G                     Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Cause mama kept me warm and she kept me fed

July 3rd was a dreaded friend of mine
     Am      Amadd9     C      Csus2      F
We'd all go down to the family plot in the Louisiana pines
Am      Amadd9  C     Csus2    F
Staring at that little baby's grave
F             G                Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Stella was as young as she was brave

And what I'd give to go there again
                G                    Am
Kiss my daddy's face, hold my mama's hand
             F                    C
Little did I know soon they would be
                   G                   Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Lying right beside her, gone away from me
               Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Gone away from me

     Am     Amadd9  C        Csus2     F
They always made us kneel by grandpa's grave
Am   Amadd9 C      Csus2  F
Mama was a-wailing asking God if he was saved
  Am    Amadd9   C      Csus2 F
I never liked to see my daddy cry
F                  G                 Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
I guess I'll never know how grandpa died

And what I'd give to go there again

Lying right beside her, gone away from me
               Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Gone away from me

    Am     Amadd9 C     Csus2      F
You barely even see the tombstones now
    Am        Amadd9   C    Csus2     F
The trees are grown up everywhere and no one keeps the grounds
Am        Amadd9 C       Csus2     F
Strangers live inside my childhood home
F                         G              Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
And I can't believe that daddy's really gone

             F                C
And what I'd give to go there again
                  G                     Am
Kiss his withered face, hold her gentle hand
                   F                  C
But there ain't no way that will ever be
                      G
They lie beneath that old tree,
                Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Gone away from me (Gone away from me)
                Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Gone away from me
                Am | Amadd9 | C | Csus2 | F
Gone away from me (Gone away from me)

Well I grew up in a town with one red light
