Lyrics of
Would

This song is from the album Dirt by the band Alice in Chains. Written by Jerry Cantrell, the lyrics reflect feelings of pain and loss, particularly influenced by themes of addiction and death within the bands context and the grunge movement of the 90s.

Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way
Go back to the opening riff and play it once, then move on to the second verse,

Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way
(go back to the opener riff, then to the third chorus)

Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way
(now it's on to the bridge and the outro):

Am I wrong? Have I run too far to get home?
Have I gone? Left you here alone.
Am I wrong? Have I run too far to get home?
Have I gone? Left you here alone.

If I would, could you?
