{intro} 
 
     A              E        
As I drive from your pearly gates 
      D          D 
I realize that I just can't stay 
            A                     E 
All those mountains, they kept you locked inside 
           D            D 
And hid the truth from my slighted eyes 
E                       E 
  I came to you with a half-open heart 
D                       D 
Dreams upon my back, illusions of a brand new start 
 
   A               E 
Nashville, can't I carry the load? 
       D               D 
Is it my fault I can't reap what I sow? 
   A                      E 
Nashville, did you give me half a chance 
            D                     D               A 
With your southern style, and your hidden dance away 
       E                    D   D 
Dance away, now you dance away 
 
All those voices, they whisper through my walls 
They talk of falling fast, they say I'm losing it all 
They say I'm running blind to a love of my own 
But I'll be walking proud I'm saving what I still own 
I fell on my knees to kiss your land 
But you are so far down, and I can't even see to stand 
 
Nashville, you forgot the human race 
You see with half a mind what colors hide the face 
Nashville, I'd like to know your fate 
I'd like to stay a while but I've seen your lowered state today 
I've seen them today, honey I swear I've seen 'em today 
 
A   E   D   D     A   E   D   D 
{instrumental} 
 
Now I'm leaving, I've got all these debts to pay 
You know we all have our dues, I'll pay in some other place 
I'd never ask that you pay me back 
We all arrive with more, I left with less than I had 
Your town is made for people passing through 
A last chance for a cause I thought I knew 
 
But Nashville, you tell me what you are gonna do 
With all your Southern style, it'll never pull you through 
Nashville, I can't place no blame 
But if you forget my face, I'll never call your name again 
No, never again, no, never, never again 
 
E {hold}              E {held} 
I fell on my knees to kiss your land 
             n.c.                    n.c. 
But you are so far down, and I can't even see to stand 
 
And Nashville, you forgot the human race 
You see with half a mind what colors hide the face 
Nashville, I'd like to know your fate 
I'd like to stay a while but I've seen your lowered state today 
I've seen 'em today, honey, I swear I've seen 'em today 
I'm running away, I'm running away, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away
