Intro: F////////B////////F////////B////////
I built a [F]fire up on the hill, I [B]sat in the woods and drank my fill
Talked to [F]God all night, [B]took another shot at setting me right
Then I [C]walked down to the [F]road , filled a [B]beer can full of [F].22 holes
Then I [C]said goodbye, yeah I [B]said goodbye
Chorus
I'd go [C]back but I can't go [F]home, cause the river is [B]up and the road is [F]closed
and there [C]ain't no tel[F]ephone.........at my [B]mother's house
and all the [C]lights are out......down on the r[F]ural route[B]
There [F]ain't much of nothin' left, this [B]place where I became myself
[F]Ghosts and memories, I'd [B]walk on by , but they'd follow me
I seen [C]Penny on down the [F]road, asking [B]if I'd seen my [F]brother
I [C]just said no.....well I guess I'd [B]better go
Chorus
I'd go [C]back but I can't go [F]home, cause the river is [B]up and the road is [F]closed
and there [C]ain't no tele[F]phone.........at my [B]mother's house
and all the [C]lights are out......down on the [F]rural route[B]
I built a [F]fire up on the hill, I [B]sat in the woods and drank my fill
Talked to [F]God all night, [B]took another shot at setting me right
Then I[C]'d just wal[F]k away, ain't [B]nothin here I [F]want to remember [C]anyway...
Least n[B]ot today
Chorus
I'd go [C]back but I can't go [F]home, cause the river is [B]up and the road is [F]closed
and there [C]ain't no tele[F]phone.........at my [B]mother's house
and all the [C]lights are out......down on the r[F]ural route
