Rural Route
Chris Knight
Intro: F////////B////////F////////B////////
F B
I built a fire up on the hill, I sat in the woods and drank my fill
F B
Talked to God all night, took another shot at setting me right
C F B F
Then I walked down to the road , filled a beer can full of .22 holes
C B
Then I said goodbye, yeah I said goodbye
Chorus
C F B F
I'd go back but I can't go home, cause the river is up and the road is closed
C F B
and there ain't no telephone.........at my mother's house
C F B
and all the lights are out......down on the rural route
F B
There ain't much of nothin' left, this place where I became myself
F B
Ghosts and memories, I'd walk on by , but they'd follow me
C F B F
I seen Penny on down the road, asking if I'd seen my brother
C B
I just said no.....well I guess I'd better go
Chorus
C F B F
I'd go back but I can't go home, cause the river is up and the road is closed
C F B
and there ain't no telephone.........at my mother's house
C F B
and all the lights are out......down on the rural route
F B
I built a fire up on the hill, I sat in the woods and drank my fill
F B
Talked to God all night, took another shot at setting me right
C F B F C
Then I'd just walk away, ain't nothin here I want to remember anyway...
B
Least not today
Chorus
C F B F
I'd go back but I can't go home, cause the river is up and the road is closed
C F B
and there ain't no telephone.........at my mother's house
C F
and all the lights are out......down on the rural route
End F////////B////////F////////B////////F
