[Verse]

            Bm                          
There ain't too many 

2am back roads that 
G                 A
I ain't drove on drunk
          Bm                             
Theres a trail ahead behind my trunk that 
G                 A
I just can't out run
 Bm
Cursing her name, 

the man I became
         G                   Em
And the flames has done burn out
 
 A              Bm
Heard theres a place out there 

for guys like me
     G                     A
The demons are chasing me south
 
 
[Chorus]

              Bm
Yeah, I gotta get there first
                     G   
Before they build a wall 
               A
I can't knock down
              Bm
If I'm gonna make this work
                G             A
I gotta couple miles on this ground
 
                   Bm
And I can see the light at the 

end of the bottle
             G            
Drinking my way through the 
             A
end of this trouble
           Bm
I let the past be the past and 

the worst be the worst
     G         A           
But all I know is I gotta 
              Bm
get it there first
 
         G           Em
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
 
 

[Break]

A        Bm
 If the water run fast enough to 

flush these pills
      G                  Em
They wouldn't be on the counter
A            Bm
And if this whiskey glass 

could hold anything more
     G             Em
It'd be enough to drown her
 
A     Bm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
           G            Em
I'll take more or-or-or-or-or
 A     Bm
An-and Oh oh oh oh oh oh
         G                  A
I gotta get myself off the floor
 
 
[Chorus]

            Bm
But I gotta get there first
                     G   
Before they build a wall 
               A
I can't knock down
              Bm
If I'm gonna make this work
                G             A
I gotta couple miles on this ground
 
                   Bm
And I can see the light at the 

end of the bottle
             G             
Drinking my way through the 
             A
end of this trouble
           Bm
I let the past be the past and 

the worst be the worst
     G         A         
But all I know is I gotta 
              Bm
get it there first
