Intro: DGDADG
Long after the last train rolled out of town
DA
I had to find out if the world was round
DG
So I left Louisiana, big city bound
DAD
Looking for god knows what
DG
Mama gave me her bible and choked back the tears
DA
Said, girl, it so easy to get lost out there
DG
Every night I'll remember you in my prayers
DAD
While you're looking for god knows what
DGD
God knows what I was after
AD
God knows what was on my mind
GD
Every step I took fell faster
A
Everything I left behind
GD
Turned into the greener pastures
AEm
What will I find after all this time
GAD
Coming back from god knows what
DG
Pride tastes bitter and dreams die hard
DA
It's tough to admit but at least that's a start
DG
Took along way around but that old backyard
DAD
Beats the devil out of god knows what
GD
God knows what I was after
AD
God knows what was on my mind
GD
Every step I took fell faster
A
Everything I left behind
GD
Turned into the greener pastures
AEm
What will I find after all this time
GA
Coming back from god knows
GDAD
what I was after God knows what was on my mind
GD
Every step I took fell faster
A
Everything I left behind
GD
Turned into the greener pastures
AEm
What will I find after all this time
GAD
Coming back from god knows what
God knows what (god knows what)
God knows what
