Don't Follow
Jerry Cantrell

Alice in Chains
Jar of Flies
1994

My brother bought this album years ago, and it's really good.
This song was my fave off it, but I never thought it was acoustic
until I listened to it about 4 days ago.  So here it is.  I used
to play it so I was kinda familiar with the tab already.  Enjoy!

LYRICS:

INTRO (play twice)


Hey I ain't never coming home
Hey I'll just wander my own road
Hey I can't meet you here tomorrow
Say goodbye don't follow
Misery so hollow


Hey you you're livin' life full throttle
Hey you pass me down that bottle (yeah)
Hey you you can't shake me round now
I get so lost and don't know how
And it hurts to care I'm going down

BRIDGE
A	D	A	D	(repeats during bridge)

Forgot my woman lost my friends
Things I'd done and where I've been
Sleep in sweat the mirrors cold
See my face it's growin' old
Scared to death no reason why
Do whatever to get me by
Think about the things I said
Read the page it's cold and dead
And take me home
Yeah take me home
Take me home
Take me home yeah
        A
Take me home
