verse 1CC9C
You were born in a southern farm,
CC9C
It might've been Sunday but I can't recall
CC9C
All the birthdays I must have missed
Am Gbass CFill 1 Fm
Your first steps and your first kiss
CC9C
I don't even know if you know my name
Am Gbass CFill 1} Fm
But you should hear the truth before it's too late
CG
So I hope this finds you, on some highway
FCFC
Cause I'm a long time rambler, I call the road my home
FCG
Forgive my indiscretion, it's the only way I know
FCAmGFFm
A million miles from Kentucky, but I will always be around
CC9C
So turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
verse 2CC9C
I've played for tips and I've played for less
CC9C
I played a pretty southern girl right out of her dress
CC9C
She danced until the lights came on
AmG CFill 1 Fm
But there's a reason she's here instead of being at home
CC9C
She said 'the songs you sing make the whole room cry'
AmG CFill 1 Fm
And that night I told a young man's lie
CG
When I said I would call her, and I said I'll write
FCFC
Cause I'm a long time rambler, I call the road my home
FCG
Forgive my indiscretion, it's the only way I know
FCAmGFFm
A million miles from Kentucky, but I will always be around
CC9C
So turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
CC9CC/B
Turn the radio up when your heart breaks down

I'm sorry for the tears I made you cry
I'm sorry for the promises that turned to lies

If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd take it back and try, try, try

To make you understand, that this is who I am
verse 3CC9C
I met the devil in an old motel
CC9C
It seems I ain't got much of a soul to sell
CC9C
My glass is empty, my hands are blue
AmG CFill 1 Fm
And the doctor gave me 'bout a month or two
CC9C
Well I thought I would make it to you this year
AmG CFill 1 Fm
So forgive me one last time my dear
CG
And tell your mother, I won't be coming home
FCFC
Cause I'm a long time rambler, I call the road my home

Forgive my indiscretion, it's the only way I know
