[Verse 1]
GLittle church on William Street
They head to tear it Emdown
My brother Gcalls once in a while
But he don't Emcome around
I hear they Gchanged my high school's name
Can't remember what it's Emcalled
I guess I'm a sDtranger in this place
It's not my hometown anGymore
[Chorus]
So I drink my wGhiskey straight
And I take my cEmoffee black
When I ran Daway from home
I never thought I'd Gmake it back
And my mother Gprayed for me
Each night before she Emwent to sleep
I wish that Dshe was here
So she could Gcomfort me
[Verse 2]
Things you wish would Gstay the same
It seems like they're the Emfirst to change
Fields we used to Grun and laugh in
Now they're someone's Emreal estate
And everyone I uGsed to know
Is like a gEmhost to me these days
And I don't think I hDave much else
That they could Gtake away

So I drink my wGhiskey straight
And I take my cEmoffee black
When I ran Daway from home
I never thought I'd Gmake it back
And my mother Gprayed for me
Each night before she Emwent to sleep
I wish that Dshe was here
So she could Gcomfort me

So I drink my wGhiskey straight
And I take my cEmoffee black
When I ran Daway from home
I never thought I'd Gmake it back
And my mother Gprayed for me

[Intro]

G Em D G

[Verse 1]

Little church on William Street

They head to tear it down

My brother calls once in a while

But he don't come around

I hear they changed my high school's name

Can't remember what it's called

I guess I'm a stranger in this place

It's not my hometown anymore

[Chorus]

So I drink my whiskey straight

And I take my coffee black

When I ran away from home

I never thought I'd make it back

And my mother prayed for me

Each night before she went to sleep

I wish that she was here

So she could comfort me

[Verse 2]

Things you wish would stay the same

It seems like they're the first to change

Fields we used to run and laugh in

Now they're someone's real estate

And everyone I used to know

Is like a ghost to me these days

And I don't think I have much else

That they could take away

[Chorus]

So I drink my whiskey straight

And I take my coffee black

When I ran away from home

I never thought I'd make it back

And my mother prayed for me

Each night before she went to sleep

I wish that she was here

So she could comfort me

[Chorus]

So I drink my whiskey straight

And I take my coffee black

When I ran away from home

I never thought I'd make it back

And my mother prayed for me

Each night before she went to sleep

I wish that she was here

So she could comfort me
