(Capo 1st fret.)
CHORUS:
[G]De[C]tour, there's a muddy road ahead,
de[G]tour, paid no mind to what it said.
De[C]tour, oh, these bitter things I find,
should have [D]read, that detour [G]sign.
#1.
[G]Headed down life's crooked road, lots of things
I never knowed, because of me not knowin', I now [D]pine.
Trouble [G]got in the [G7]trail, spent the [C]next five years in jail..
should have [D]read that detour [G]sign.

#2.
[G]When I got right to the place where it said, 'About Face,'
I thought that all my worries were be[D]hind.
But the [G]farther I [G7]go, the more [C]sorrow I know..
should have [D]read that detour [G]sign.

#3.
[G]When I got stuck in the mud all my hopes
dropped with a thud..
I guess that my heart strings are made of [D]twine.
Have no [G]willpower to [G7]get, from the [C]hole that I'm in yet..
should have [D]read that detour [G]sign.
