[intro] A [verse 1] A When I rolled out of town on the unpaved road E I was fifty-seven dollars from being broke A Kissed my mama and my sisters, I said goodbye A7 And with my suitcase packed D A E I wiped the tears from my eyes [verse 2] A Times they were tough, growing up at home E My daddy lost the farm when I was two years old A Took a job at the prison, working second shift A7 And that's the last time D A E I let them take what should be his [chorus] G Cause all I wanna do is make a little cash C Cause I worked all the bad jobs, bustin' my hands G I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine D And turn back the clock C G G# on the cruel hands of time [verse 3] A When I hit the city, I joined the band E Started singing in the bars and running with the men A But the men they brought me problems and the drinking caused me grief A7 I thought I'd found a friend D A E but I only found a thief [verse 4] A Soon I settled down with a married man E We had a couple babies, started living off the land A But my firstborn died and I cried out to God A7 Is there anybody up there lookin' D A E down on me at all? [chorus] G Cause all I wanna do is make something last C But I can't see the future, I can't change the past G I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine D Turn back the clock C G G on the cruel hands of time [verse 5] A Still I keep a-running fast as I can E Trying to make something honest with my own two hands A And I ain't got the breath to say another bad word A7 So if I ever said it wrong D A E won't you forget what you heard [chorus] G Cause all I wanna do is make my own path C Cause I know what I am, I know what I have G I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine D C G Turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time D C G Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time D C G Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time
