Chords with lyrics
Tuning: EADGBE
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
From the day I was born there was a light that called my name, buried deep somewhere in my soul
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
And I thought it disappeared through my darlin's golden tears and if I followed, then I would lose control
A minorAm E minorEm
Woah, I followed then I would lose control
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
Like an outlaw runnin' from a hangman's noose, I wander through the dark between the hills
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
I was hidin' from the sun, in the shadows I did run, (I was neglectin' what my soul would reveal x2)
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
Hungry as a hound, drunk as a skunk I dragged my weight on home
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
And I thought it didn't show, but a mother always knows, (all the scars that left to fester on your soul x2)
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
Well the sky'd been cryin', for three damn weeks, day they let me outta that Turney Texas jail
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
I was walkin' I-35, tryna bum a ride (wishin' god would let me out of myself x2)
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
Well I stared up at the sky I said oh-why-oh-why lord you've left me all broken in the cold
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
And I swallowed my pride enough to ask you for a sign, (lord let me know I'm not alone x2)
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
And I saw break lights, and with tears in my eyes, I walked to the passenger side door.
C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
He said boy I know what you've been prayin' for
G+G C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
From the day you were born there was a light that called your name, buried deep somewhere in your soul
G+G C majorC
And it brought you the truth, and it made you confused,
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
if you don't follow, then you will lose control, no if you don't follow,
E minorEm
