D
I built a fire up on a hill
G
Sat in the woods and drank my fill
          D
Talked to God all night
G
Took another shot and set me right
       A                  D
Then I walked down to the road
         G                 D
filled a beer can full of .22 holes
      A  
And I said good-bye
       G
yeah I said good-bye

       A                   D
I''d go back but I can''t go home
             G                  D
the river is up and the road is closed
          A                D       G
and there ain''t no telephone in my mother''s house 
            A
and all the lights are out
            D               A        G      D
down on the rural route

There ain''t much of nothing left
Of this place where I became myself
Ghost and memories
I walk on by but they follow me
I seen Penny on down the road
Asked him if he''d seen my brother
He just said no
Well guess I better go

I built a fire up on a hill
Sat in the woods and drank my fill
I talked to God all night
Took another shot and set me right
Then I just walked away
Ain''t nothing here I wanna remember anyway
At least not today
