G 
Headed down life's crooked road  
  
Lot of things I never knowed 
                                    D7 
And because of me not knowing I now pine 
        G 
Trouble got in the trail  
                      
Spent the next five years in jail 
            D7               G    G7 
Should have read that detour sign 
  
   C 
De-tour there's a muddy road ahead  
D7  G                                G7 
De-tour paid no mind to what it said 
   C 
De-tour oh these bitter things I find  
            G    D7          G 
Should have read that detour sign 
  
  
When I got right to the place  
  
Where it said about face 
                                     D7 
I thought that all my worries were behind 
        G 
But the father I go the more sorrow I know 
            D7               G 
Should have read that detour sign 
  
Repeat #2 
  
When I got stuck in the mud 
  
All my hopes dropped with a thud 
                                         D7 
I guess that my heart stings are made of twine 
       G 
Had no will power to get from the hole that I'm in yet 
            D7               G 
Should have read that detour sign 
  
Repeat #2
