Lyrics

[Verse 1] I could have been star chambered On the tree of rock 'n' roll life Or maybe a railroad wife I was railroaded once or twice I might've dodged a bullet chambered In the alley running for my life I'm sure that I dodged a knife I finally learned my lesson once or twice [Chorus] A million years ago I took a chance And let it all unravel slow I bet on odd 'til I broke even Then I just had to go Then I just had to go Then I just had to go [Verse 2] I could've been things I don't remember A double-crossing wife I was in another life I've been buried once or twice I played sixteen bars and what did I get? Another town over and covered in sweat Almost run over With another hangover and drunker in debt [Chorus] A million years ago I took a chance And let it all unravel slow I bet on odd 'til I broke even Then I just had to go Then I just had to go Then I just had to go [Verse 3] Where did i put my wings? I can never find those things Now I'm running, running late I might be stuck here at my gate Though you may be dearly departed Dearly departed I'm just getting started [Chorus] A million years ago I took a chance And let it all unravel slow I bet on odd 'til I broke even Then I just had to go Then I just had to go Then I just had to go
