I’ve been running down a long road,
With a half-spent pack and a head full of ghosts.
Made friends with the hard nights,
’Cause they talk less than the folks I used to know.
I’ve burned through every back bar,
Playing lonesome chords on a busted string…
Yeah, I ain’t proud of the man I was,
But I’m trying like hell to change the thing.
Chorus
’Cause I’m tired of all these devils I’ve been chasing,
Tired of waking up and not knowing what I’m facing.
If the good Lord’s listening, maybe He’ll show patience—
’Cause I ain’t clean, but damn, I’m trying.
Yeah, the road gets rough and the bottle keeps calling,
But I still stand up every time I’m falling.
A better man’s out there, somewhere waiting—
I’m just tired of all these devils I’ve been chasing.
Verse 2
There’s a woman in my rearview,
She deserved a whole lot more than goodbye.
But I was young and stubborn,
Tried to outrun love with a truck and a lie.
Now I’m older in the bad ways,
And these miles cut deeper than they used to.
But I still carry her memory,
Like a tattoo you can’t undo.
Chorus
’Cause I’m tired of all these devils I’ve been chasing… (repeat chorus)
Bridge
Maybe one day I’ll find peace
In a town where they don’t know my sins.
Hang up this old guitar,
And finally feel whole again.
But until then…
Final Chorus
I’ll keep fighting all these devils I’ve been chasing,
Keep praying for a life that’s worth embracing…
I ain’t perfect, but hell, I’m pacing—
Toward a better man I ain’t met yet.
Yeah, the road’s still rough and the bottle still calling,
But I’ll stand back up every time I’m falling.
I ain’t done—but I ain’t breaking.
Just tired of all these devils I’ve been chasing.
