Back Of My Mind

INTRO: G  C  G  D Dsus 2x then G


VERSE 1:

        G                     C
Well my daddy he stood at the foot of the stairs
       G                    D  Dsus D
He was calling to me at the time
      G                       C
And I knew even then, I could die for the thoughts
       G           D          G
that I kept in the back of my mind


      G                         C
But I dared not to speak, how I felt for my dad
             G                D     Dsus
'Cause there were no words to define
     G                     C
This ball of confusion and feelings and stuff
       G           D          G
That I kept in the back of my mind


VERSE 2:


     G                         C
So I took to the highway and I kept to myself
       G                     D    Dsus
Just a lookin' and hopin' to find
       G                      C
Some solutions, some answers, some way to exist
         G            D          G
all this stuff in the back of my mind


     G                    C
So I took me a job, and I took me a man
      G                   D   Dsus
And I took me a bottle of wine
       G                       C
But it did not take long, 'til all I had left
         G           D          G
Was this junk in the back of my mind


CHORUS:


G            C         Am      D
Drivin' like rain on a runaway train
Bm     C                    G           D          G
Flyin' blind, shot from the dark in the back of my mind

VERSE 3:

         G                    C
Well the end of the tunnel it never came up
       G                      D   Dsus
'Til I came to the end of the line
      G                       C
I saw that the light I'd been hoping to see
      G            D          G
Was a spark in the back of my mind

       G                               C
And the cold wind that blew through the hole in my heart
       G                       D    Dsus
Made a fire for the very first time
        G                       C
Of some branches of trust and a kindling of faith
         G            D          G
And that spark in the back of my mind

CHORUS:

G            C         Am      D
Drivin' like rain on a runaway train
Bm     C                    G           D          G
Flyin' blind, shot from the dark in the back of my mind
G            C         Am      D
Drivin' like rain on a runaway train
Bm     C                    G           D          G
Flyin' blind, shot from the dark in the back of my mind
              G           D          G
Shot from the dark in the back of my mind  3x then Fade
