I'm full of pride and my heart feels good

Couldn't believe the voice in my ears
G#m C# B F#
When the man saying "no hiding ,son"

So I left the only folks I had known

I was fifteen then, hardly grown
G#m C# B F#
When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud
F# B
Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far

Everybody said the kid's no good
