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