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