C       G               C             D 
  They had my future wrapped up in a parcel 
     C           D                 G 
and no one even thought of asking me. 
                      C                D   
The day I turned fifteen I caght the mailtrain 
     C                   D              G 
To find what else might be in life for me. 
   Em                                                                    B7 
I rode on trucks and trains and lived on nothing; 
 Em                                 A7 
Served me right for wanting to be free-  
          G               C            D 
Ah well that's the way society looked at it,  
        C               D             G 
But it didn't seem to be that way to me. 
 
 
Chorus 
                           G             D              G        
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me; 
                    C              D7 
the only twisted branch upon our good old fam'y tree 
          G              B7             Em               
I just couldn't be the person they ecpected me to be 
              G              C              D       G  
A7 And the biggest disappiontment in the world was me 
 
 
C       G               C             D 
A lot more dinner times than there dinners 
     C           D                 G 
I learned a lot that hurt me at the time 
                      C                D   
Then this quiet country boy came home a different man  
     C                   D              G 
with a memory of distance on my mind 
   Em                                                                    B7 
But i always spoke to loud and drank to often,  
 Em                                 A7 
Maybe drank to many glasses down 
          G               C            D 
And perhaps my clothes were older that I realized 
     C               D             G 
A relief to all concerned when I left town
