[Intro]
Gm C C G
Gm C C G
 
 
[Chorus]
GmWhen I need space that's where I go
CA place to escape that nobody knows
CWhere I feel free to let things go
GAnd face this evil that burdens my soul
 
GmI bring my hatred, I pack my pain
CAll the emotions I cannot explain
CIt's where I found God
 
And filled that whole
GIt's He, myself and I
 
GmOn that lonely dirt road
 
 
[Verse]
CI needed somewhere to take my mistakes
CI didn't want my family to see me cry
 
They'll never know I'm
GCarrying all of this weight
 
Dealing with the pressure
GmOf trying to provide
 
 
[Verse]
CNo sign of struggle can show on my face
CThey ask if I'm OK I just flash them a smile
GFire up that engine to take me away
GmI'm speeding through emotions with every mile
 
On that road is where I find my peace
CI remember daddy told me about some times like these
COn that road is where my minds at ease
GI keep driving life away, rejecting change
 
So
 
 
[Chorus]
GmWhen I need space that's where I go
CA place to escape that nobody knows
CWhere I feel free to let things go
GAnd face this evil that burdens my soul
 
GmI bring my hatred, I pack my pain
CAll the emotions I cannot explain
CIt's where I found God
 
And filled that whole
GIt's He, myself and I
 
GmOn that lonely dirt road
 
 
[Verse]
 
I tried my best to plant the seeds
CAnd then I watered everything that was in my life
CBut as aman, the only flowers that you get
GAre when you're 6 feet under on the day you die
 
GmI think I feel the pain my father felt
CIt's finally sinking in
 
Looking back all I see is his eyes
CHe said that house is not a home
GUnless you build it on respect
 
With some kids and a loving wife
 
 
[Verse]
GmIf these walls could talk
CI bet they'd say it's all my fault
 
That I don't try hard
CThat I ain't man enough
 
That I ain't standing up
GThat I just burn everything
 
That my hands touch woh oh
 
 
[Verse]
GmIf these walls could talk
 
I bet they'd say I'm to blame
CThat I'm the one who put myself inside of all of these chains
CThat my addictive personalities what ran them away
GAnd that I hurt myself by staying quiet
 
GmAnd not explaining I'm broken
 
In places, I can't even see
CI know there's gotta be a heaven
 
Because the hell that's in me
CIs taking a dangerous toll
GThat I'm paying with all of my soul
 
 
[Chorus]
GmWhen I need space that's where I go
CA place to escape that nobody knows
CWhere I feel free to let things go
GAnd face this evil that burdens my soul
 
GmI bring my hatred, I pack my pain
CAll the emotions I cannot explain
CIt's where I found God
 
And filled that whole
GIt's He, myself and I
 
GmOn that lonely dirt road
