D 
Now I'm here on the blacktop sun in my eyes 

Women and country on my mind

Both turned me out over the borderline 
        G  
There's no more love lost and no more games

No more digging holes of graves

Nothin' to lose but rivets and chains

verse 2 

D 
I was born in a stable built like an ox 
                
Down in the pastures I learned how to walk

Mama she raised me to sing and a little talk 
       G  
And no rich man's worth his weight in dust 
     D 
They bury him down same as they do us 
    G 
God wants us busy never giving up 
         A                          D 
He wants nothin' but the whole wide world for us

I ain't got no money I ain't got no love

Never was too good at either of 'em I'm here for adventure  
                 D 
Whichever way it comes 
     G 
What good is an angel that won't catch up 
    D 
I'm free falling now and I'm ready enough 
  G 
I give my tears and I give my blood 
       A                          D
