Todd Snider - That Was Me Lyrics
Remember back about five years ago
Drivin' down the highway
Saw a kid there by the road
Long blonde dirty hair
His thumb out in the air
That was me
Remember the kid that walked into your store
The one you told you were sorry
You weren't hiring anymore
So he walked out your door
His head hung toward the floor
That was me
That was me
The one who never seems to fit in between those lines
I'm every broken dream
This world has left behind
I'm a face you've seen a million times
Remember the kid you saw that night downtown
Singing on the sidewalk
Guitar case on the ground
He looked down on his luck
So you threw him a buck
That was me
That was me
Remember back about five years ago
Drivin' down the highway
Saw a kid there by the road
Long blonde dirty hair
His thumb out in the air
That was me
That was me
That was me

Todd Snider's song about total compassion. 1st song I ever heard him sing. Thanx for spreading this song around.

@richievaughn123 thanks richie
nice job ~~ you picked that up quick
I used to play quite a bit myself, and tried to learn how to read music, but found it was so much quicker to just pick it up by ear like you said. Great job!
@christyvanriper well, just kinda picked it up by ear...i'll prolly redo it when I get my better equipment set up and actually learn the song lol...but thank you just the same...
Thumbs up!!! Amazing voice, and strumming is great-right on the money. Didn't take you long to get that one down!
