Deeper In Chords & Lyrics - Drive-by Truckers

By the [G]time you were born there were [C]four other [G]siblings
With your [G]Mama awaiting your Daddy in [D]jail
Your [G]oldest brother was a[C]way at a [G]home
And [G]you didn't meet him 'til you was[D] nineteen years[G] old

Old e[G]nough to know better, old e[C]nough to know [G]better
But you [G]took to his jaw line and long sandy [D]hair
How he [G]made you feel like [C]none off the [G]others
And the [G]way he looked at you touched you [D]deep down in [G]there.

So you [G]jumped on his bike and rode [C]into the [G]sunset
But the [G]sequel it started with the next morning [D]sun
And the [G]dew on the bike seat and [C]you all a [G]glow
From the [G]love he put in you and a [D]life on the [G]run.

So you [G]moved to a small town, and [C]then to a[G]nother
And [G]then to another with another on its [D]way
And you [G]both swore to God you would [C]keep it to[G]gether
And the [G]State wouldn't take your [D]babies a[G]way

Now, the [C]District Attorney said he [G]might of forgiven
You [G]had lots of reasons to turn out this [D]way
But you'll [G]both go to jail for them [C]four little [G]babies
You [G]made and delivered a[D]long the [G]way

Last [G]night you had a dream about a [C]Lord so forgiving
He [G]might show compassion for a heathen he [D]damned
You a[G]woke in a jail cell, a[C]lone and so [G]lonely
[G]Seven years in Michigan [D] [G]
