Verse 1
C F Dm F
I ain't from Texas, but I made my way from Dallas

Verse 2 (Use chords from first verse).
Once I was a carpenter, 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 where they lay
F Fm
Forever I will move like the world that turns beneath me
C Am G
and when I lose my direction I'll look up to the sky
F
and when the black cloak drags upon the ground
Fm C
I'll be ready to surrender, and remember
Am G
well we're all in this together
F Fm
If I live the life I'm given, I wont be scared to die
Verses 3+4. (Same as first two.)
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
Chorus 2 (Same as first).
Forever I will move like the world that turns beneath me
and when I lose my direction I'll look up to the sky
and when the black cloak drags upon the ground
I'll be ready to surrender, and remember
well we're all in this together
If I live the life I'm given, I won't be scared to die
(Interlude again then that cool little riff).
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 my eyes
Bridge
C F G C
Sometimes I hit, sometimes it robs me blind
Sometimes I hit, sometimes it robs me blind
Chorus 3 (Same as first two).
Forever I will move like the world that turns beneath me
and when I lose my direction I'll look up to the sky
and when the black cloak drags upon the ground
I'll be ready to surrender, and remember
well we're all in this together
If I live the life I'm given, I won't be scared to die

4. Pretty Girl From Michigan
Tuning: EADGBE
Tabbed By: Johncoyne
C Em
Can you not see what you've done?
F G
You gave your heart away like that.
C Em
I didn't want to fall in love,
F G
with anyone but you, dear.
C Em
I can still hear the song,
F G
the melody behind the kiss,
C Em
you gave me, you were wrong,
F G
I was right so I walked away,
C Em
and left you there, alone,
F G
I got so tired of talking on the
C Em
telephone,
F G
how many times would we say the words, "Good bye?"
RIFF*
C Em
I made mistakes, and one,
F G
was telling you that I'd be there when
C Em
telling time (?) had come,
F G
I should have said I didn't care.
C Em
All the time I would have saved,
F G
If I had been less willing
C Em
to accommodate,
F G
you'd been a little less likely to cry.
RIFF*
Am G
You go back to the high life,
Am G
and I'll go back to the low.
F
I should have known,
G
But now I know.
C Em
There'll be no word from you,
F G
describing how it felt to go through
C Em
what I put you through
F G
It all makes perfect sense
C Em
the way you cut the rope
F G
that kept you dangling from such
C Em
pitiful amounts of hope,
F G
I would have cut it, too.

Hard to believe I won't see you again
Am Em7
We were just fighting when winter began
F G C G
The coldness of our words competing with the wind from the north.
C G
Still they make me shiver but in a very different way
Am Em7
The pages of the calendar kept turning away
F G C G
I have some better words now but it's too late to say them to you.
My dream of all dreams and my hope of all hopes
Is only to tell you and make sure you know
How much I love you and how much I always did.
And yes I know you loved me, I can see it in your eyes
And it was in your struggle and it was in your mind
And it was in the smile you gave me when I was a kid
(Chorus)
C Am G
Feels like no one understands
C Am G
And now my only chance
F G C Em7 Am
To talk to you is through my prayers.
F G C
I only wanted to tell you I cared
(Verse pattern)
Every night after and every day since,
I found myself crying when the memory hit.
Sometimes it knocks me down, sometimes I just put it away.
Down in my mind where I don't care to go
The pain of a lesson is letting me know
If you have love in your heart let it show while you can
Yes now I understand
But now my only chance
To talk to you is through my prayers.
I only wanted to tell you I cared.
I only wanted to tell you I cared.

Lyrics:
You may have to drag me away from my demons
Kicking and screaming
It's been so long now, I've been with them
Don't know where they stop and I begin
We draw a line in the sand
Will you cross it? Oh, will you die for this?
Got nothing to tell you that you don't
Through your sadness below, already know
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Live through the past again
How many times must I live through the past again?
No more
Truth beyond truth and by our design
It is very fine like Newman's wine
Oh, to be like him and walk a path
To lend a hand, do something worth a damn
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Live through the past again
How many times must I live through the past again?
No more, wait
You may have to drag me away from my demons
Kicking and screaming
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Live through the past again
How many times must I live through the past again?
