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