Intro
A D A E }x4 A
A
It was my senior year
[D] [A]
I just turned eighteen
F#m E A
I was a friday night hero, with division one dreams
A
I had an offer on the table
[D] [A]
A four year ride
F#m E A
'Til that fourth and two and twenty four dive
[E] [D] [A]
I left on a stretcher, wound up on a crutch
E
Walked on that next summer
[D] [A]
Wound up getting cut
F#m E D A
Flipped off that coach, left that school in the dust
Bm [A/C#] D
For letting my dreams Go bust
[D] [E]
But I thank God I ain't what I almost was
A D A E }x2
A
Yea, I moved on back home
[D] [A] [F#m] [E] [A]
And came awful close to being some son-in-law to some CEO
[A] [D] [A]
Coulda been a corner office, country club, suit and tie man
F#m E A
Answerin' to no one, but her and him
[E] [D] [A]
I ran out on his money, ran out on her love
[E] [D] [A]
At four in the morning I loaded my truck
F#m E D A
I left my home town in a big cloud of dust
Bm [A/C#] D
I just had to follow my gut
[D] [E] [Bm]
And I thank God I ain't what I almost was
Guitar Solo: [A/C#] D Bm [A/C#] D E
A
In guitar town I bought this old Epiphone
Started stringin' chords and words into songs
I've been putting in time on Sixteenth Avenue
F#m E A
Pouring out my heart for tips on a stool
[E] [D] [A]
I ain't making a killing, but then theres those nights
[E] [D] [A]
When the song comes together and hits them just right
F#m E D A
The crowds on their feet cause they can't get enough
Bm [A/C#] D
Of this music I make and I love
F#m
And I thank God I ain't, yea I thank God I ain't,
[D] [E]
Yea I thank God I ain't, what I almost was
