[C]I ain't from [F]Texas, but I [Dm]made my way from [F]Dallas

Verse 2

Once I was a carpenter, and man my hands were calloused
I could swing a metal mallet sure and straight
But I took to the highway, a poet young and hungry
And I left the timbers rotting where they lay

Chorus

[F]Forever I will move like the [Fm]world that turns beneath me
And when I [C]lose my [Am]direction I'll [G]look up to the sky
And when the [F]black cloak drags upon the ground
I'll be [Fm]ready to surrender, and [C]remember
Well we're [Am]all in this to[G]gether
[F]If I live the life I'm given, [Fm] I wont be scared to die[C][G][C][G]

Verse 3

And I don't come from Detroit, but her diesel motors pull me
And I followed till I finally lost my way
And now I spend my days in search of a woman we called purpose
And if I ever pass back through here town I'll stay

And my life is but a coin, pulled from an empty pocket
Dropped into a slot with dreams of sevens close behind
And hope and fear go with it, and moon and the sun go spinning
Like the numbers and fruits before our eyes

[C]Sometimes I [F]hit, some[G]times it robs me [C]blind
[C]Sometimes I [F]hit, some[G]times it robs me [C]blind
