Momma ran off with a man from town

Daddy came home, found the note, got drunk and fell down

Jessie was crying, no tears would be saved

I couldn’t take it so I started pining straight for the grave

I should’ve told you that night that we slept in the car
C#m D A
I would’ve told you, but I never saw us getting this far
(2nd verse, same chords except where noted)
I met a man in a suit, he said he’d give me a job
I wouldn’t have to pay taxes and I wouldn’t have to rob
Man it was easy, all I had to do was drive
I didn’t care what was in the suitcase,
It felt good to be alive
I should’ve told you that night that we slept in the car

I would’ve told you, but I never saw us getting this far

I know I’ve been hard on you baby

Momma should’ve known that you can’t grow up alone
A E D
And we will be together someday maybe
A
There’s no place called home
(3rd verse, same chords as first and second verses)
Something was funny, the whole deal kind of strange
I could hear momma saying son your daddy ain’t never gonna change
I was down in an instant, just a big flash of light
Undercover lie bleeding, I guess I put up a fight
I should’ve told you that night we made love on the bar
C#m D E
I would’ve told you, but I never saw us getting this far
I know I’ve been hard on you baby
Momma should’ve known that you can’t grow up alone
And we will be together someday maybe
There’s no place called home
