Detour Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Det[G]our,[C]
there's a muddy road ahead, de[G]tour
Paid no mind to what it said
[C]Detour, oh these bitter things I find,
Should [D]have read
That detour [G]sign

[Verse 2]
Headed [G]down life's crooked road,
lots of things I never knowed
Because of me not knowin',
I [D]now pine
Trouble [G]got in the trail,
spent the [C]next 5 years in jail
[D]Should have read (should have
read) that detour [G]sign
[C]Detour,

[Verse 3]
there's a muddy road ahead,
de[G]tour
Paid no mind to what it said
De[C]tour, oh these bitter things I find,
Should have [D]read
That detour [G]sign

[Verse 4]
When [G]I got right to the place where
[D]it said "About [G]Face"
[F#]I thought that all my [G]worries [D]were behind
But [F#]the farther [G]I go, more sor[C]row[D] I know
[C]Sho[D]uld have read (should have read)
That detour [G]sign[D]
[C]Detour,

[Verse 5]
there's a muddy road ahead,
detour
[G]Paid no mind to what it said
De[C]tour, oh these bitter things I find,
Should have [D]read
That detour [G]sign
[Em]When I got

[Verse 6]
[G]stuck in the mud all
my hopes dropped with a thud
I guess that my heart strings
are made of [D]twine
Have no [G]willpower to get from
the [C]hole that I'm in yet
[D]Should have read (should have
read) that detour [G]sign
[C]Detour,

[Verse 7]
there's a muddy road ahead,
de[G]tour
Paid no mind to what it said
[C]Detour, oh these bitter things I find,
Should have [D]read
That detour [G]sign
[C]Should have read

[Verse 8]
[D]that detour sig[G]n
Should have [D]read that detour
[G]sign (that detour sign)
