Tuned a whole step down (DGCFAD).
[Verse 1]
N.C.
By the time you were born there were four other siblings
N.C.
With your momma awaiting your daddy in jail
N.C.
And your oldest brother was away at a home
N.C.
And you didn't meet him til you were nineteen years old
[Verse 2]
G Old enough to know better C G old enough to know better G D But you took to his jawline and long sandy hair G And he made you feel C G like none of the others G D G And the way he looked at you touched you deep down in there
[Verse 3]
G So you jumped on his bike C G and rolled into the sunset G D But the sequel it started with the next morning sun G And the dew on the bike seat C G and you all aglow G D G From the love he put in you and a life on the run G So you moved to a small town C G then to another G D Then to another with another on its way G And you both swore to God C G you would keep it together G D G And the state wouldn't take your babies away
[Verse 4]
C Now, the District Attorney G said he might have forgiven G D You had lots of reasons to turn out this way G But you'll both go to jail C G for them four little babies G D G You made and delivered along the way

[Verse 5]
G Last night you had a dream C G of a Lord so forgiving G D He might show compassion for a heathen He damned G You awoke in a jail cell C G alone and so lonely G D G Seven years in Michigan
