[Verse 1]
D Headed down life's crooked road D Lots of things I never known D A7 And because of me not knowin' I now payin' D D7 Double bad rock on my trail G G7 Spent the next five years in jail A7 D Should have read that detour sign
[Chorus]
G Detour there's a muddy road ahead D Detour paid no mind to what it said G Detour all the bitter things I find A D Should have read that detour sign

[Verse 2]
D I got stuck in the mud D All my hopes dropped with a thud D A7 And I thought with my hard brake could free the tires D D7 But the further I go G G7 The more sorrow I know A7 D Should have read that detour sign
[Chorus]
G Detour there's a muddy road ahead D Detour paid no mind to what it said G Detour all the bitter things I find A D Should have read that detour sign
[Outro]
A D Should have read that detour sign A D Should have read that detour sign
