Verse 1
G
Well, I've slept out on these streets before
G
and I've drowned myself in every bar,
C G
but not like I did with you.
G C
Now, I've got one more night of tellin' lies,
G C
I hope they never televise,
G D G G
the things that I used to do.

Verse 2
G
And now I'm on the run again
G
for the dumbest thing that I ever did
C G
and I don't know what I should do.
G C
You said "You can hardly see you won't get far",
G C
so, I let the dog drive the car
G D G G
and hoped that I'd make it through...
Chorus
D C G G
And I did but I might be ... goin' away for a while,
D C G G
goin' away for a while.
D C G G
They might be shipping' me away to Deadman's Isle
G C G C
and if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial,
G D G G
I'll be goin' away for a while.

G
I've practiced stuff and stumbling around
G
but that night I really knocked you down
C G
and now I don't know what to do.
G C
And now that dog went off but I can't blame him
G C
gotta get done under this mess I'm in,
G D G G
I won't be comin' home to soon.
Chorus
D C G G
And I might be goin' away for a while,
D C G G
I might be goin' away for a while,
D C G G
they might be shipping me away to Deadman's Isle.
G C G C

Verse 4
G G
I never should've let that dog drive, I never should've let him in,
G G
I never should've drunk that last ride, I never should've drunk that gin.
G C
And now I've got one more night stuck inside of a police station
G D G G
and I don't think I'll see that dog again.
G C
I've got one more night I'm seein' stars,
G C
slip on my stripes behind the bars,
G D G G
I guess they found out where I've been.
End-Chorus
D C G G
And now I'm goin' away for a while,
D C G G
and now I'm goin' away for a while,
D C G G
I guess they're shipping me away to Deadman's Isle.
G C G C
Now, I've got one more night of tellin' lies, I hope they never televise
G C G C N.C.
this one last night with crooked eyes; let's light this city up tonight.
G C G C
'Cos I'm goin' away, I'm goin' away,
G D G C G D G
I'm goin' away for a while.
