[00:01.56] What I Almost Was
[00:02.55] .
[00:02.80]
[00:21.74] It was my senior year
[00:23.55] I just turned eighteen
[00:24.74]
[00:25.61] I was a Friday night hero, with division one dreams
[00:29.54]
[00:30.23] I had an offer on the table
[00:32.16] A four year ride
[00:33.47]
[00:34.35] 'Til that fourth and two and twenty four dive
[00:37.78]
[00:38.96] I left on a stretcher, wound up on a crutch
[00:42.33]
[00:43.15] Walked on that next summer
[00:45.08] Wound up getting cut
[00:46.64]
[00:47.33] I flipped off that coach, left that school in the dust
[00:51.01]
[00:51.69] For letting my dreams go bust
[00:54.25]
[00:56.00] But I thank God I ain't what I almost was
[01:00.74] .
[01:01.30]
[01:08.79] Yea, I moved on back home
[01:10.23]
[01:10.97] And came awful close to being some son-in-law to some CEO
[01:16.27]
[01:16.85] Coulda been a corner office, country club, suit and tie man
[01:20.84]
[01:21.61] Answerin' to no one, but her and him
[01:25.42]
[01:25.98] I ran out on his money, ran out on her love
[01:29.60]
[01:30.23] At four in the morning I loaded my truck
[01:33.91]
[01:34.59] I left my home town in a big cloud of dust
[01:38.28]
[01:38.90] I just had to follow my gut
[01:41.83]
[01:43.63] And I thank God I ain't what I almost was
[01:48.68] .
[01:48.99]
[02:07.68] In guitar town I bought this old Epiphone
[02:10.62]
[02:15.71] Started stringin' chords and words into songs
[02:19.14]
[02:23.88] I've been putting in time on Sixteenth Avenue
[02:26.81]
[02:28.19] Pouring out my heart for tips on a stool
[02:31.74]
[02:32.37] I ain't making a killing, but then there's those nights
[02:36.24]
[02:36.76] When the song comes together and hits 'em just right
[02:40.32]
[02:40.92] The crowds on their feet cause they can't get enough
[02:44.16]
[02:45.22] Of this music I make and I love
[02:48.40]
[02:49.55] And I thank God I ain't, yea I thank God I ain't,
[02:55.67]
[02:58.58] Yea man I thank God I ain't, what I almost was
