Is there something wrong?
Was it something I had said?
I knew it along.
Just couldn't get it through my head.
So I'm heading for the door,
'Cause I can't handle the lies around here no more.
And darling, let's not pretend
We will go our separate ways, and remain here

Well, I don't know how I ever got here
Leanin' against this wall
A blindfold stretched from ear to ear
as I hear her yell out the call,

"Boys steady your rifles high,
and use a steady eye.
Put that bullet right through his heart
Let his soul watch him die."

An

The sidewalks talkin' as i was walkin'
On my usual way to work
He said 'why do you walk the way you do?
Careful not to step on the crack'
Said 'i don't want to do anything that might have offended you
Cuz i know what it's like to be walked on tonight, especially on old boots<

You choose your way, and I,
By God, I will choose mine.
Thumb, wind, earth, guitar in hand.
You sought the high life
With those rich and shameless men,
And I get my fill on one-night stands.

You wanted the things that I,
I couldn't possibly buy,
And I wanted to

Yeah, when I was young, they said I was naive.
It was all a misunderstanding.
How live could be so demanding,
But I learned it well.

Yes, the ground would fall right from beneath my feet.
I'd pray to God for a decent landing,
That I could come up standing
This time.

If I speak, It might come out wrong
If I dance, I might step on her shoes
If I kiss her she might, come home with me tonight
She might break my heart, least it's a start

So run, run, away
Won't you run, run, child
Keep on runnin', runnin' babe
Won't you run, run, ru

You know all that I have.
Yeah, she gave me the world and took it back.
But it only lasted for a moment,
Thought it still haunts me to this day.

But it's not like I could get much lower tonight.
No, it's not like I could get much lower tonight.

Well, another night on

I'm a man of humble means,
And I try not to let it get me down.
No, I just keep movin' around
Onto the next town.

Well, I'd rather live my life
With a hand on this suitcase of mine.
Yeah, with just enough close to get me by,
And I'll be just fine.

Nobody, beau

Well, it always
Seems to hurt this bad,
And I can't fix it,
No matter how many drinks I've had.
And, Lord, I'm not angry,
But I am awful drunk.

And then she walks in,
All perfection and graced out.
She just broke up with her boyfriend.
You know, eight years

God, hear my prayer.
Show you're there, for I wait.
Because I've stopped believing in
Most everything except this guitar.
Oh, Lord, may it carry me far.

Love, come on strong,
Because I belong in her arms.
And I, I'll fuck it up,
'Cause love is tough for me these

And old man moving pretty slow
On a bench as birds pass by below,
Eating all the bread that he had to throw.
He knows how to be alone.

And then he said with a tear in his eye,
"If you're thinking about love, well don't you give it a try,
'Cause someday the one you love

Thought I'd have learned by now.
Thought I'd have learned by now.
To giving my heart with no doubt. (?)
Thought I'd have learned by now.

I'm tired of lies by now.
Tired of lies by now.
Is there an honest man in this crowd?
Tired of lies by now.

They say I'm de
