Am
I learn what I know
C
But I was born this way
G
More of a number
Am
And less of a name
Am
I talk a little too quiet
C
And not enough they say
G
I only tell my secrets
Am
When it?s time to pray
Am C
You wouldn?t see the war just lookin? from the outside
Am G
I?ve got red dirt blood here runnin on the inside
C G
Sink or swim, live or die
Am
A saving grace and a blue sky
C G
All alone, and unafraid
Am
It?s never just another day
Am
And you don?t back down or walk away
G
But I know, I do, I am
C
What it takes
What it takes
Am
Wash away my footprints
C
With the undertow
G Am
While I?ll walk the wire, of the great unknown
Am
I got two parts too
C
My storied soul
G Am
One stands with my brothers, one waits for me back at home
C G
Sink or swim, live or die
Am
A saving grace and a blue sky
C G
All alone, and unafraid
Am
It?s never just another day
Am
And you don?t back down or walk away
G
But I know, I do, I am
C
What it takes
Am C
You wouldn?t see the war just lookin? from the outside
Am G
I?ve got red dirt blood here runnin on the inside
C G
Sink or swim, live or die
Am
A saving grace and a blue sky
C G
All alone, and unafraid
Am
It?s never just another day
Am
And you don?t back down or walk away
G
But I know, I do, I am
C
What it takes
Oh what it takes
