[Intro]
Em G Em G
[Verse 1]
Em GWe were running through the red lights
EmIn a hurry to get to nowhere
GIn a white Beretta
Em GWe'll Go to Memphis in the morning
EmTo get it over with and in a couple days
GYou'll feel a lot better
[Pre-Chorus]
Em GI was raised in the church
EmI was washed in the blood and we all were saved
GBefore we even left home
EmIf his love is unconditional
GWhy Do I feel so miserable?
Em GWhy are you digging your nails in the Styrofoam?
[Chorus]
DIt was so many years ago
AmOh, and I just didn't know
Em DBut that ain't no excuse
DFor bеing who you are
Am EmI thank you, and I'm sorry
DFor what you went through
[Verse 2]
EmI was sitting at a red light
GListеning to Son Volt
Em GMay the wind take your troubles away
EmCould have been somebody's father
GCouldn't boil a pot of water
Em GI was nineteen years old in nineteen ninety eight
[Pre-Chorus]
Em GRaised in the church
EmWashed in the blood and we all were saved
GBefore we even left home
EmI thank God you weren't brought up like me
GWith all that shame and certainty
Em GAnd I'm sorry you had to Go in that room alone
[Chorus]
DIt was so many years ago
AmOh, and I just didn't know
Em DBut that ain't no excuse
DFor bеing who you are
Am EmI thank you, and I'm sorry
DFor what I put you through
[Solo]
Em G Em G
[Chorus]
DIt was so many years ago
AmOh, and I just didn't know
Em DBut that ain't no excuse
D AmI thank you for your grace
EmFor the dreams we got to chase
DFor what you chose to do
[Outro]
EmWe were running through the red lights
G EmIn a hurry to get to nowhere
GIn a white Beretta
