Verse 1
Am                       G                    D  
Should've been a lawman, dominant hand with a radical creed
Am                              G                   D
Should've punched clocks on the piers and the docks makin' concrete
          Am            G                  D
I've seen ships down in Savannah let their ivory sails soar
Am                  G              D
I could've gotten used to life at sea
Am                     G                    D
Could've been a doctor livin' in a mansion, rich as I'd be
Am                       G                       D
Would've had a fast car, young blonde girlfriend all for free
          Am                 G                D
I like to think in some town far away there'd be a man like I am now
Am                G             D     C
He will feel that he was losin' touch, lost too much

Verse 2
         Am                       G
Well I'm down with the devil, and down with the saints
D
I'm layin' on thick, fresh coats of paint
Am                        G
Take it all back, take it all back, Jack
D
She never loved a damn thing, never lost face
Am            G                  D
I would die a thousand deaths to end up in her lovin' arms
Am             G             D   C
Every chance I had I threw away, I spent everyday

Where I dreamed of you
