G
I had my future
C
D
wrapped up in a parcel
C
D
G
No one even thought of asking me
The day I turned fifteen
C
D
I caught the mail train
C
D
To find what else might be
G
in a life of me
Em
I rode on trucks and trains
B
and lived on nothing
Em
Served me right for
A
wanting to be free
G
Ah well, that's the way
C
D
society looked at it
C
D
G
But it didn't seem to be that way to me
And the biggest disappoint
C
G
ment in the family was me
C
The only twisted branch
D
upon our good old family tree
G
B
I just couldn't be the person
Em
A
they expected me to be
G
C
And the biggest disappointment
D
G
C
G
C
in the world was me
G
A lot more dinnertime
C
D
than there were dinners
C
D
G
I learned a lot that hurt me at the time
And this quiet country boy
C
D
went home a different man
C
D
G
With a memory of distance on my mind
D
Em
Hey, I always spoke too loud
B
and laughed too often
Em
Maybe drank too many
A
glasses down
G
And perhaps my clothes
C
D
were older than I realized
C
A relief to all concerned
D
G
when I left town
And the biggest disappoint
C
G
ment in the family was me
C
The only twisted branch
D
upon our good old family tree
G
B
I just couldn't be the person
Em
A
they expected me to be
G
And the biggest disappointment
C
D
G
in the world was me
And the biggest disappoint
C
G
ment in the family was me
C
The only twisted branch
D
upon our good old family tree
G
B
I just couldn't be the person
Em
A
they expected me to be
G
And the biggest disappoint
C
D
G
C
ment in the world was me
Get on in, bro.
