           (Oh, just don't know)
                   Abm
(Well, I'm going down)
  Gb       Db
Going down the hard road
            Abm                Gb        Db
(Just don't know) Don't know where I've been


[Verse 1]
                                 Abm                  Gb
Growing up, I needed a guide like a blind veteran's dog
                   Db
'Cause I was going nowhere like a child's letters to God
              Abm                  Gb
Though life's road was hard, I was never so lost
       Db
That I looked for an answer in a medicine box
        Abm                  Gb
I never did pop pills or cop deals, just rocked hills
  Db
Kids with skills, still got harassed by cops 'til
       Abm                         Gb
They'd have me in the back of a paddy, down to lock up
 Db
Smack me, pat me down for a baggy, mums would rock up
    Abm                Gb
And bail me out, a failure out once again
     Db
Next weekend, bail me out, drunk again
      Abm                Gb
And I never will forgive myself
    Db
For putting you through all that hell
            Abm                    Gb
I went from high school dropout to factory labourer
 Db                                                      Abm
Slave to the clock until four, went from sleeping on the floor
                 Gb
To being out on tour, now, no stopping me
     N.C.                                                 Abm
I'll finish with a bang like Kurt Cobain's biography, uh


[Hook]
  Gb       Db
Going down the hard road, down the hard road
              Abm                Gb        Db
(I just don't know) Don't know where I've been
                                     Abm
I don't know where to go, it's like
  Gb       Db
Going down the hard road, down the hard road
              Abm                Gb        Db
(I just don't know) Don't know where I've been


[Verse 2]
           Abm                    Gb
I spent my youth like life was cheap
                       Db
The only change that I wanted was enough to buy a drink
         Abm                  Gb
Was on a path to nowhere, the harder the road
         Db
The more broken baggage we carry, the larger the load
               Abm                      Gb
This school dropout got knocked out, chased by the cops out
  Db
Got clout, dumped by my girlfriend and locked out
     Abm                      Gb
Been broke and beaten, even choked at being
       Db
A dope MC but never lost hope in dreaming
           Abm                  Gb
We used to thrash boosted cars 'til the engine'd fail
        Db
If I never had bailed, maybe I'd be dead or in jail
           Abm             Gb
And man, I got no one else to blame
           Db
I thank my family and music for keeping me sane
               Abm                            Gb
But that's the breaks, right? Started working late nights
             Db
Never seeing daylight, getting paid like a slave might
         Abm                     Gb
And I've done too many years to miss this for my missus
   N.C.                                             Abm
To have to tell my son he nearly never existed, uh


[Hook]
  Gb       Db
Going down the hard road, down the hard road
              Abm                Gb        Db
(I just don't know) Don't know where I've been
                                     Abm
I don't know where to go, it's like
  Gb       Db
Going down the hard road, down the hard road
              Abm                Gb        Db
(I just don't know) Don't know where I've been

[Verse 3]
                   Abm                       Gb
And I speak what I feel in the booth in the spirit of truth
                 Db
'Cause all these kids that I meet, man, they mirror my youth
      Abm                                Gb
And I could have gone the wrong way, the easy option
      Db                                                    Abm
But I chose to go the long way, the streets is watching, so
                    Gb                           Db
So keep a look out, look up, B-Ballers keep your hook up

Pull a page from my book out, and pull out
     Abm                      Gb
Your finger, put your foot out and keep a lookout
            Db                                                   Abm
For what we put out, the brand new flavour for your cookout, uh

Going down the hard road, down the hard road

(I just don't know) Don't know where I've been

I don't know where to go, it's like

Going down the hard road, down the hard road

Abm           Gb         Db
  I'm walking round in circles
Eb            Bb       Eb  B
  Can't even find a friend

Woah, my love
