Eight hour drive on a Dtwo lane blacktop
CNobody loves me toGday 
Three in the morning, Dhard scrabble country
I went and Cpushed everybody aGway
CHORUS:
CI need drink
BmI need a bed
CI need a stronger reDsolve
CI need a future
And a Gheart that ain't Embroken
'Cause Dyou never loved me at GallD  
I am Gwatching the sunrise Dfill up the sky
It's how I Ctry to make you Gfeel 
I learned your tough lesson, don't Dget in too close
When you Cfind out nothing is Greal
CHORUS:
CI need some courage

CI need a safe place to Dfall
CI need a future
And a Gheart that ain't Embroken
'Cause Dyou never loved me at Gall
INTERLUDE:   G    D    C    G    D(2x)
Now I'm Gpacking my things Dfor the long trip out
I took a Cgood look around the GplaceD  
There Gweren't any flowers
Any Dhearts, any hope
No Clove, not even a Gtrace
CHORUS:
'Cause Cyou made love bitter
BmYou made it rain
And you Cleft me with no one Dto call
CI need a future
And a Gheart that ain't Embroken
'Cause Dyou never loved me at GallD  
CYou never Dloved me at Gall
