Things I'd Rather Have Been

	  		INTRO  Am C  D  Am  
 
VERSE: 
 
Am                 C       D       Am      
It's late at night and the road is long 
Am           C     D     Am  
Too many K's being on my own 
Am                 C       D       Am  
The road is narrow and the gutters deep 
Am                      C       D        Am  
And when tommorow comes there's still no sleep 

F              C        G     C 
Maybe I should leave it all behind 
    F         C         G        Am 
And rest this tired and troubled mind 
    Am           G            Am 
And someday I'll throw it all in 
        F          G           C 
For the things I'd rather have been
 
 
VERSE: 
 
Am                  C      D      Am 
Cracklin of the cd, voices on the air 
Am                    C          D    Am      
Flashing blue lights, appear and disappear 
Am                 C            D        Am     
A couple of hours, well I'll be homeward bound 
Am                 C       D    Am 
Then another load, another turn around 
 
CHORUS: 
F              C        G     C 
Maybe I should leave it all behind 
    F         C         G        Am 
And rest this tired and troubled mind 
    Am           G            Am 
And someday I'll throw it all in 
        F          G           C 
For the things I'd rather have been 
 
BREAK: Am  G  F  Am  F  C  G  Am 
 
VERSE: 
 
Lonely nights on endless runs 
Oncoming lights day is never done 
The long white line well it can drive you mad 
You think about a life, that you never had 
 
CHORUS: 
F              C        G     C 
Maybe I should leave it all behind 
    F         C         G        Am 
And rest this tired and troubled mind 
    Am           G            Am 
And someday I'll throw it all in 
        F          G           C 
For the things I'd rather have been
