DETOUR
ELTON BRITT KEY A
A
HEADED DOWN LIFE’S CROOKED ROAD
A
LOT’S OF THINGS I NEVER KNOWED
A E
AND THE CAUSE OF ME NOT KNOWIN’, I NOW PINE
A
TROUBLE GOT ME IN THE TRAIL
D
SPENT THE NEXT FIVE YEARS IN JAIL
E A
SHOULD HAVE READ----THAT DETOUR SIGN
CHORUS;
D
DETOUR, THERE’S A MUDDY ROAD AHEAD
A
DETOUR, PAID NO MIND TO WHAT IT SAID
D
DETOUR, OH THESE BITTER THINGS I FIND
E A
SHOULD HAVE READ THAT DETOUR SIGN
WHEN I GOT RIGHT TO THE PLACE,
WHERE IT SAID “ABOUT FACE”
I THOUGHT THAT ALL MY WORRIES WERE BEHIND
BUT THE FARTHER I GO—
THE MORE SORROW I KNOW
SHOULD HAVE READ THAT DETOUR SIGN
WHEN I GOT STUCK IN THE MUD,
ALL MY HOPES DROPPED WITH A THUD
I GUESS THAT MY HEART’S STRINGS ARE MADE OF TWINE
HAD NO WILL POWER TO GET-----
FROM THE HOLE THAT I’M IN YET
SHOULD HAVE READ THAT DETOUR SIGN
