Bm
I've got a lot of miles to travel
G                          A
This is a bright and windy day
Bm
I've got to wake myself and shake myself

Because I've vowed to take this all the way

Verse 3:
         D
I hope I always know the time to stop

The time to push my luck
            C
The time to stand up and be counted
            G                 D
The time to sit down and shut up
         D
I hope I always find the threads
    A
And remember how to spin them
         C
I hope I always want the details
     G                   D
Even when the devil's in them
         G                A                Bm            G
And when promise comes to take me and when push comes to shove
         E           G
I hope I always stay worthy of your love
         E           G              D
I hope I always stay worthy of your love
