Verse 1
C 
G 
Oh, how clumsy I've grown
C 
The kids are gone
G 
We've gone running for the hills
I will learn to walk alone
C 
Been searching my soul through
G 
C 
A new leaf long overdue
Em 
Falling, falling down
C 
Em 
Never got me very far, anyhow
I am humble,
C 
Em 
coming home to work it out
C 
I think I'll leave it all behind
D 
Stand up and make you proud
C 
I drew the line and now it's
Em 
D 
mine to cross
Am 
Cause I won't fight another day
G 
D 
for the lost cause
C 
Em 
Another night, another mile
D 
on the defensive in denial
Am 
G 
D 
Their memory will linger on
But the kids are gone
G 
C 
G 
and they ain't coming back
Oh, how bitter I've become
C 
The kids are gone
G 
Was it I who chased them out?
Somewhere in the night on the road
C 
We were driving so fast
G 
C 
I was losing control
Em 
Falling, falling down
C 
Em 
Won't heal them old wounds anyhow
C 
I am humbled coming
Em 
home to work it out
C 
I think I'll leave it all behind
D 
Stand up and make you proud

I drew the line,
Em
