Intro: Em G D C x2 Chorus: Em When I need space thatʼs where I go G A place to escape that nobody knows D Where I feel free to let things go C And face this evil that burdens my soul Em I bring my hatred, I pack my pain G All the emotions I cannot explain D Itʼs where I found God And filled that whole C Itʼs He, myself and I Em On that lonely dirt road Verse: G I needed somewhere to take my mistakes D I didnʼt want my family to see me cry Theyʼll never know Iʼm C Carrying all of this weight Dealing with the pressure Em Of trying to provide G No sign of struggle can show on my face D They ask if Iʼm OK I just flash them a smile C Fire up that engine to take me away Em Iʼm speeding through emotions with every mile On that road is where I find my peace G I remember daddy told me about some times like these D On that road is where my minds at ease C I keep driving life away, rejecting change So Chorus: Em When I need space thatʼs where I go G A place to escape that nobody knows D Where I feel free to let things go C And face this evil that burdens my soul Em I bring my hatred, I pack my pain G All the emotions I cannot explain D Itʼs where I found God And filled that whole C Itʼs He, myself and I Em On that lonely dirt road Verse: I tried my best to plant the seeds G And then I watered everything that was in my life D But as aman, the only flowers that you get C Are when youʼre 6 feet under on the day you die Em I think I feel the pain my father felt G Itʼs finally sinking in Looking back all I see is his eyes D He said that house is not a home C Unless you build it on respect With some kids and a loving wife Em If these walls could talk G I bet theyʼd say itʼs all my fault That I donʼt try hard D That I ainʼt man enough That I ainʼt standing up C That I just burn everything That my hands touch woh oh Em If these walls could talk I bet theyʼd say Iʼm to blame G That Iʼm the one who put myself inside of all of these chains D That my addictive personalities what ran them away C And that I hurt myself by staying quiet Em And not explaining Iʼm broken In places, I canʼt even see G I know thereʼs gotta be a heaven Because the hell thatʼs in me D Is taking a dangerous toll C That Iʼm paying with all of my soul Chorus: Em When I need space thatʼs where I go G A place to escape that nobody knows D Where I feel free to let things go C And face this evil that burdens my soul Em I bring my hatred, I pack my pain G All the emotions I cannot explain D Itʼs where I found God And filled that whole C Itʼs He, myself and I Em On that lonely dirt road Em G D C x2
