I Thought Ive Heard You Screaming

[Verse]
A
It’s a lonely walk
With a road like that my girl
           D                                                A
You ain’t seen no love since that man walked out your door

A
Harder, still
You think you can’t tell no one
        D
You God died back in ‘94
                                    A
With a needle, with a needle and a gun

A
Caught your leg on a branch from a willow tree
          D
You got blood in your eyes, girl
Thought I heard you screaming—

A
That man took every part of me
                            D
I lost my will along the highway—marker 54
She said “oh, they don’t make men like that no more”
                  A
Honey, they sure don’t

A
Set yourself on fire so high so high
         D
I could feel your heart was speeding
                                A
Did you love me or was it the drugs?
         D
I could feel your heart was speeding
                                A
Did you love me or was it the drugs?
