When I rolled out
of town on the unpaved road

I was fifty-seven dollars dollars
from being broke

Kissed my mama and my sisters
D 
and I said goodbye
G 
And with my suitcase packed I wiped
C 
G 
D 
the tears from my eyes

Verse 2

Times they were tough growing up at home

My daddy lost the farm when

I was two years old

Took a job at the prison working

second shift

And that's the last time I let them

take what should be his

Verse 3
F 
Cause all I want to do
is make a little cash
Bb 
Cause I worked all the bad
jobs bustin' my ass

I want to buy back the farm
And bring my mama home some wine
C 
Bb 
And turn back the clock on the cruel
Gm

hands of time

Verse 4
G 
When I hit the city I joined the band
D 
Started singing in the bars and
running with the men
G 
But the men they brought me problems
And the drinking caused me grief
I thought I'd found a friend
C 
G 
D 
but I only found a thief

Verse 5
G 
Soon I settled down with a married man
D 
We had a couple babies,
started living off the land
G 
But my firstborn died and
I cried out to God
Is there anybody out there looking
C 
G 
D 
down on me at all?

Verse 6
F 
Cause all I want to do
is make something last

But I can't see the future,
I can't change the past

And bring my mama home some wine
C 
Bb 
Gm 
Bb 
Turn back the clock on the cruel hands
F 
of time

So if I ever said it wrong won't

you forget what you heard

Turn back the clock on
Bb

the cruel hands of time
