Key: C Tuning: E A D G B E Intro: C F C G7 C Verse 1: C I've been doing all I can Dm I've been wrestling with the man F From Texas to Montana G C And every dirty DA in the land C And I've let some people down Dm Lord, how they hate me now F 'Cause I wouldn't trade my peace G C For the keys to the underground
Chorus: Dm Am F Oh, and now I wear these scars Dm Am F Showing how I got this far C And the bitter road ahead Am Is as lonely as it's cursed G G7 It ain't what you said C It's what you meant that hurts [Instr.] G7 C Verse 2: C And I left a few for dead Dm The water overtook their head F And I made it to the shore G C Prayed to the Lord and softly wept C You can't save them all Dm Even great men do fall F And now the only oath I keep G C Is to God with kin and that woman's call Chorus: Dm Am F Oh, and now I wear these scars Dm Am F Showing how I got this far C And the bitter road ahead Am Is as lonely as it's cursed G G7 It ain't what you said C It's what you meant that hurts Outro: G G7 It ain't what you said C It's what you meant that hurts
