G C D
Start FINGERPICKING then Transition to strumming when the song picks up!
I use a pick holder called the Pik-Tik for this....
G C
I like fast cars, and sharp dreams
D G
chased a lot of crazy things
C D
left behind my share of broken pieces
G C D G
this morning I turned 36, and you just remember half of it
C D
you wonder how you out-lived Hank and Jesus
C D
I put the rage in a river, the roll in a thunder
G C
but you kept me from goin' under,
C D
when that current got too heavy
C D
I always thought I'd be a heap of metal
G C
in a cloud of smoke, foot stuck to the pedal
C D
Sold for parts like a junkyard rusted-out Chevy
C Am
Fear, I've had none
C
what the hell made you want to love
C D G
a man, who was gonna die young
G C
In the mirror, I saw my surprise
D G C
who knew gray hairs liked to hide, on a head
D
that didn't think he'd live past thirty
G C D G
If I make it thirty more, it's the brown that you'll be looking for
C D
as you run your fingers through, say "slow down, honey"
C D
I put the rage in a river, the roll in a thunder
G C
but you kept me from goin' under,
C D
when that current got too heavy
C D
I always thought I'd be a heap of metal
G C
in a cloud of smoke, foot stuck to the pedal
C D
Sold for parts like a junkyard rusted-out Chevy
C Am
Fear, I've had none
C
what the hell made you want to love
C D G
a man, who was gonna die young
G C
Call it intuition, or call it crazy
D G
just thought by now I'd be pushing up daisies
C D
but I'd gladly stick around if we're together
G C
So baby when you bow your head tonight
D G
could you tell the Lord I've changed my mind?
C D G
And with you I'd like to live, forever
