Bm
I've been on the road so long
A
The straight-and-narrow I've been on
Em
Is crooked as this smile that I fake
Bm
And I need you like I need a drink
A
Or a cigarette and some time to think
Em
About the choices that you and me make
G
And I feel lonely
A
And I'm so sorry
[Verse 2]
Bm
And I remember the morning of Christmas Day
A
I was still drunk and you were so afraid
Em
To end up with someone like me
Bm
And then it all seemed to fall apart
A
In a foreign land, ridin' in your car
Em
As you sang, "I still don't know what love means"
G
And man, that hurt me
A
Just like I hurt you
[Chorus]
G
And I have done some thinking and changing
A D
along the way
G A
And I wish that you could just see who I am
D
today
Bm A
I know I'm a damn good man
G
I know you did the best you can
A D
With the one I was then
[Verse 3]
Bm
I never wanted all of this
A
But oil and water, they never mix
Em
Until you light a match and turn it to a
flame
Bm
And there won't be another time around
A
I had my chance and I shot it down
Em
Just a bird and rifle to blame
G
Man, I hate that song
A
I play it all night long
[Chorus]
G A
And I have been thinking and changing along
D
the way
G A
And I wish that you could just see who I am
D
today
Bm A
I know I'm a damn good man
G
I know you did the best you can
A D
With the one I was then
[Otro]
Bm A
And I've learned from my mistakes
G
The next one won't be afraid
A D
Of the one I was then
