Verse:

       C
As I'm thrown into an empty room or should I say a box

   Am
I try to turn around to leave but the door is slammed and locks

     G
so I sit here and I think about all the evil things I've done

  F                                 G
I lost where I was going cause I forgot where I came from

Chorus:

  C
I surrender

Put my weapons down

        Am
I can't remember

what I'm doing in this town

     G
It's time for me to pack my bags

I will always be alone

    F                             G
The only thing I've ever known is out there on the road

      C
I'm a drifter

      Am            G F G
I'm a drifter

Verse:

    C
Now every time I look straight into my father's eyes

  Am
I see how hurt and broken down he is from all the times

   G
He had to watch the son he raised follow in his steps

    F                                G
The only option that he ever had was to hope for the best

Chorus:

  C
I surrender

Put my weapons down

        Am
I can't remember

what I'm doing in this town

     G
It's time for me to pack my bags

I will always be alone

    F                             G
The only thing I've ever known is out there on the road

Bridge:

   Am
My faith is weak my soul is bound

this lonely road I travel down

  C
I scrape my feet this jagged ground

the cuts run deep into me now

  F
Mother oh why aren't you here

So young I was, you disappeared

  G
I know the truth is ugly did you truly ever love me?

Am C F Em F G Outro:

  C
I surrender

Curse my mothers soul

        Am
I still miss her

No matter where I go

     G
It's time for me to pack my bags

I will always be alone

    F                          G
The only thing I've ever known is a broken home
