Intro: C9, Em, D, D
Verse:
C9 Em,
That same road that brought you here
D, D
Will sure as hell take you home
C9 Em, Dsus
The life you left behind will have you back
C9 Em, D
You're tired of paying dues in worn out shoes
D
and Broadway blues
C9 Em, Dsus
And any fool will tell you the damn ol' deck is stacked
Pre-Chorus
C9
What if you're just a vessel
Em
And God gave you something special
Chorus
C9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
C9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
C9 Em
Every time you open up your mouth
A Em G
Diamonds come rolling out
C9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Em C9
No ...
And all of the players, the movers, and shakers
The story maker suits have gone home
You drew the last slot
You thought it was your shot
But now it's just one more chance blown
What if you're just a vessel
And God gave you something special
It ain't yours to throw away
It ain't yours to throw away
Every time you open up your mouth
Diamonds come rolling out
It ain't yours to throw away
No ...
Em
And our town is cold as January
A C9
Life comes true, and dreams get buried every day ...
Em Dsus C9
Destiny won't be denied
It ain't yours to throw away
No, it ain't yours to throw away
'Cause every time you open up your mouth
Diamonds come rolling out
It ain't yours to throw away
It ain't yours to throw away ...
Throw away
