Verse:
C
And I sing songs about the past
How I was raised And how I was thrown out on my ass
F
'Cause I didn't care
C
'Bout going to school
C
And I saw the look in her eyes
F
My mother nearly cried when I told her that I wanted to go
C
Just to prove them wrong
Am
I've been smoking Cigarettes
F
Since I was only fourteen
C - hold -
Just to find an escape
F - hold - C
From this town that was so mean to me
C
And I sing songs about my friends
And how we grew up
F
In all the loose ends, we used to laugh
C
'Cause I didn't give a damn
C
And I saw the look in my brothers eyes
When I told him I was leaving
F
He couldn't help but despise me
C
He's wanted out his whole life
Am
I've been smokin' the green
F
Since I was merley sixtee
C - hold -
Just to find an escape
F - hold - C
From this town that was so mean to me
C
And I sing songs about the past
Am
I plea for relief
This town won't recede
C
The things that I want
F
The things that I need
Am
I'll beg and I"ll beg
I'm down on my knees
C
Momma, oh Momma
F
Let me please leave
Am
I plea for relief
This town won't recede
C
The things that I want
F
The things that I need
F C
All I ever wanted was Love
