[Verse]

Em                                     G
We were running through the red lights
                       Em
In a hurry to get to nowhere
                   G
In a white Beretta
Em                                 G
We'll go to Memphis in the morning
                        
To get it over with and 
     Em
in a couple days
                         G
You'll feel a lot better
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Em                         G
I was raised in the church
                               
I was washed in the blood and 
   Em
we all were saved
                    G
Before we even left home
       Em
If his love is unconditional
G
Why do I feel so miserable?
Em                       
Why are you digging your  
                G
nails in the Styrofoam?
 
[Chorus]

D
It was so many years ago
Am
Oh, and I just didn't know
Em                      D
But that ain't no excuse
D
For bΠ΅ing who you are
Am                   Em
I thank you, and I'm sorry
                         D
For what you went through
 
[Verse]

Em
I was sitting at a red light
G
ListΠ΅ning to Son Volt
Em                              G
May the wind take your troubles away
           Em
Could have been somebody's father
         G
Couldn't boil a pot of water
      Em                    
I was nineteen years old in 
         G
nineteen ninety eight    
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Em                  G
Raised in the church
                       
Washed in the blood and 
   Em
we all were saved
                    G
Before we even left home
        Em
I thank God you weren't 

brought up like me
     G
With all that shame and certainty
        Em                    
And I'm sorry you had to go in
           G
 that room alone
 
[Chorus]

D
It was so many years ago
Am
Oh, and I just didn't know
Em                      D
But that ain't no excuse
D
For bΠ΅ing who you are
Am                   Em
I thank you, and I'm sorry
                   D
For what I put you through
 
[Solo]

[Chorus]

D
It was so many years ago

Oh, and I just didn't know
Em                  D
But that ain't no excuse
D                    Am
I thank you for your grace
                         Em
For the dreams we got to chase
                   D
For what you chose to do
 
[Outro]

Em
We were running through 

the red lights
G                      Em
In a hurry to get to nowhere
                   G
In a white Beretta
