[Verse 1]
Fm
I've crossed the line
Fm
I've bent the rules
Fm
Home of the brave
Fm
Red, white, and blue
Fm
I've fought the fire
Fm
Running through my head
Fm
Stood by and watched
Fm
Believed in what they said
[Chorus]
Fm
I'm 40 miles of bad road
C#
A# riverbed of potholes
A#
I know, I know, I know where
Fm
the money goes
Fm
Down a shaft of ratholes
C#
Lowered by my ankles
A#
Where dear dogs lie in the
Fm
afterglow
[Verse 2]
Fm
I've walked the cage
Fm
I've been in cuffs
Fm
I've done the time
Fm
Enough is enough
Fm
I know my rights
Fm
Know when I'm wrong
Fm
But nothing seemed to matter
Fm
Until you came along
[Chorus]
Fm
I'm 40 miles of bad road
C#
A# riverbed of potholes
A#
I know, I know, I know where
Fm
the money goes
Fm
Down a shaft of ratholes
C#
Lowered by my ankles
A#
Where dear dogs lie in the
Fm
afterglow
[Verse 3]
Fm
I've wrapped my wounds
Fm
I've closed my eyes
Fm
Escaped to nowhere
Fm
Turning back the tide
Fm
I asked the sage
Fm
What it's gonna take
Fm
To get out of Jordan
Fm
With everything at stake
[Chorus]
Fm
I'm 40 miles of bad road
C#
A# riverbed of potholes
A#
I know, I know, I know where
Fm
the money goes
Fm
Down a shaft of ratholes
C#
Lowered by my ankles
A#
Where dear dogs lie in the
Fm
afterglow
[Outro]
Fm
In the afterglow
Fm
In the afterglow
Fm Fm
In the afterglow
