[G]
Staring at the pictures [D] of the [G] runaways on the wall
[C] [G] It seems like these days you couldn't run away at all
And even if you did, what you got to run away to?
[C] [G] Just another drunk daddy [D] with a white man's [C] point of view
[G] And I can see you in [Gm] my mind's [D] eye [C] catching light
[G] You'll sleep beside the river if we make it out of town tonight
You can strip in Portland from the day you turn [C] sixteen
[G] You got one thing to sell, benzodiazepine
[D] Ten years ago I might have seen [Em] you dancing in a different light
[D] And offered up [G] my help in different ways
But those were different days,
[C] [G] those were different days
I had a girl back home and we shared [D] a single [C] bed
[G] And when I whispered in her ear she believed every word I said
And if she didn't believe, she didn't dare give [D] me [C] slack
[G] It was, baby I love you but you got to get off of my back
Then time went by and left and left again
I guess Jesus loves a sinner but the highway loves a sin
My daddy told me, I believe he told [C] me true
That [G] the right thing's always the hardest thing to do
[D] [G] [D] Ten years ago I might have stuck [Em] around for another [G] night
[D] And used her in [G] a thousand different ways
But those were different days,
[C] those [Em] were different [D] days
[C]
[G] [D] And the story's [Em] only mine to live [C] and die with
[G] [D] And the answer's [G] only mine to come across
[D] But the ghost that I [Em] got scared and I got [G] high with
[D] Look a little lost
[G] Ten [D] years ago I might have [G] thought I didn't have the right
[D] To say the [G] things an outlaw wouldn't say
But those were different days, [G]
