I'm  all washed out by the side of the road.
Broken  bones Matilda left a note and a rose.
 Saying "Baby  honey child, I love you so long but you deserve  much better than me"
So  I'm just burning all around.
 All the miles on the road.
And  I'm never going back.
 And I'm never going home.
I've  been gone too long.
 I've been less right than wrong.
 barre
 I've lost so much blood in the falling out
And  I lit a fire that wouldn't go out.
 Until it consumed  the walls and roof of this house.
 Until all I remember  was burning away.
   barre
 And all I remember, you burnt it away.
See  for 10 long years I've been hustling around.
Tryin'  to wash the sins and sweat from my brow.
Just  trying to find a better life for me and my own.
Just  some rest for these tired working fingers.
But  nobody's ever going to tear you away.
 You gotta figure  it out boys.
 It's all for the rain, and the fools  in the night, and the heat in the day.
   barre
 When all you ever really wanted was someone to understand.
And  I lit a fire that wouldn't go out.
 Until it consumed  the walls and roof of this house.
 Until all I remember  was burning away.
   barre
 And all I remember, you burnt it away.
 Well don't you take it so hard  and baby don't you cry.
 Cross your hard heart  and hope to die.
 Don't you tell me no more  lies, you lied all the time.
   barre
 Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.
 And your sugar and spice,  and everything nice.
 You got Monroe hips,  your poison lips and knives.
 And your sugar and spice,  and everything nice.
   (  barre 2nd time)
 Open wounds and a young boy's pride.
And  I lit a fire that wouldn't go out.
 Until it consumed  the walls and roof of this house.
 Until all I remember  was burning away.
   barre
 And all I had left, you burnt it away.
 Well don't you take it so hard  and baby don't you cry.
 Cross your hard heart  and hope to die.
 Don't you tell me no more  lies, you lied all the time.
   barre
 Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.
