[Verse 1]
D G Dm D
The headlights of my daddy's car are dimmer than the moon
D G D
And the radio is playin' low, it's Johnny Cash in June
A C G
I know these hills, these twisted roads, I know their every turn
D G F Dm
As the city sits below and like a distant fire it burns
G D G
[Chorus]
D
Cause I'm a rebel to the one I love

G D
So, out of spite, I turned to petty crime upon the streets
A C G
'Til I met this girl at the pool home and you know she knocked me off my feet
D G
And I swore to change my wicked ways and win her heart to me
[Verse 3]
D G Dm
So we married in the month of May and we moved up in the hills
D G
And like my old man I joined the police force to pay the bills
A Am C G
But when a crooked sargent called me in yeah and I wouldn't play the game
D G Dm
Well, he took my badge and he took my gun and he sent me off in shame
