[B] [A] [G]
[Bm] [B] [G]
[D] [D]
I left here this morning, my feet hot on the ground.
Swore I wasn't coming back, we'd fought our final round.
[Bm] But a stranger [A] offered me [G] a ride, [Bm] so I took him [A] up and climbed [G] on inside.
[D] He said, I've got some things to do, I hope that you don't mind.
I figured, what's the difference?
I had lots of time.
[Bm] When I seen his [A] eyes, I sank in [G] disbelief.
[Bm] I was riding [A] with the devil, and [G] I watched
him do [A] his deeds.
He [D] told that lonely man [A] to keep drinking.
[G]
Simple [A] child to just quit [D] thinking, and begged the [E] wife to cheat.
[G] And he cursed the farmer's land.
Oh, [D] that sick old [A] soul to just give up.
[G]
Teenage [A] boy to take that [Bm] puff, and whisper to [A] me, let go of [G] her hand.
[B]
[A] [G] [Bm]
[A] [G] [D]
[Bm] [D] [B] [D] He said, I can't keep you here, no, I'm not against your will.
Go ahead and leave that girl, and see how good it feels.
[Bm] Boy, you know, [A] this world's a big [G] old place.
[Bm] Your love's not [A] really real [G] anyway.
[D] Life don't last forever, so you ought to roll [Bm] the dice.
[D] You know I'd never [A] tell a lie, [D] just take my advice.
But [Bm] I'd seen enough, [E] and I told him we [G] were through.
[Bm] I said, go [A] to hell, there's [G] some things I [A] need to do.
I told that lonely man to quit drinking.
[G] Simple child [A] to just keep thinking,
[D] and begged the wife [A] to pray.
[G] God bless the farmer's land.
Oh, [D] that sick old soul [A] to not give in.
[G] Teenage boy [A] to run from sin,
[Bm] and came back home [A] to take you by [G] the hand.
[Bm] I know I [A] can be a [G] better man.
