(chords are played cleanly during verses,
and heavily distorted during chorus)
persuaded paraded inebriated in doubt
still aware of everything
life carries on without
but theres one too many faces
with dollar sign smiles
I've gotta find the shortest path
to the bar for awhile
(chorus) a long way from happiness
in a three hour away town
whiskey bottle over jesus
not forever just for now
not forever just for now
well theres a trouble around
its never far away
the same troubles been around
for a life and a day
now I can't forget the sound
cause its here to stay
the sound of people chasing money
and money getting away
(play chorus again)
in between the dirt and disgust there must be
some air to breathe
and something to believe
liquor and guns the sign says quite plain
somehow life goes on
in a place so insane
(play chorus again)
