Back to Where I’m From

[Verse 1]
You can never have enough of a good thing
Good things don't come around with enough to bring
And it always leaves you thinkin'
Maybe things are never gonna change around here

[Verse 2]
You can never write a song with no ending
The hardest that you try, that song will always win
It makes you wanna give in and write another verse just for fun, but you can't
I guess all your wishful thinkin' never really paid off in the end, in the end

[Chorus]
I'm a little gone, but I know I'm livin' wrong
I take my chances by the days gone by
Know love's a pretty song but sometimes I just sing along
And walk the broken path that I call home
Back to where I'm from

[Verse 3]
You can drive your beat-up car and go to Vegas
And gamble all your life, no you'll never need a friend
Until you're out of money and sleepin' in the streets once again, once again
I guess all your wishful thinkin' never really paid off

[Chorus]
I'm a little gone, but I know I'm livin' wrong
I take my chances by the days gone by
Know love's a pretty song, but sometimes I just sing along
And walk the broken path that I call home
Back to where I'm from

[Bridge]
La da da da da
La da da da da

You can drive across the map for no reason
With a guitar on your back and that song you wanna sing
You can meet a girl in Austin and bring her back to Boston in the fall, in the fall
'Cause the one good thing to happen is happening to you now

[Chorus]
I'm a little gone but I know I'm livin' wrong
I take my chances by the days gone by
Know love's a pretty song, but sometimes I just sing along
And walk the broken path that I call home
Back to where I'm from
Oh, back to where I'm from, oh yeah
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Back to where I'm from

(You think those have anything to do with each other? Just get 'em out, [?] just get 'em. [?] liar? Maybe a little, maybe a little bit.)
