Ain't Goin My Way chords by Old Man Luedecke

I was feelin' important, feelin' in control
C              Cm            G                     D
Felt like everywhere I went, folks said, "There he goes"
      G                                              C      Cm
I was beaming like a noon-day sun, my ducks all in a row
     G
When all a sudden in a flash, I saw it was not so

            G
Ain't goin' my way
            Em
Ain't goin' my way
        C          D                    G
There's no denyin' thing's ain't flyin' my way
            G
Ain’t goin' my way
            Em
Ain’t goin' my way
        C          D                    G
There's no denyin' thing's ain't flyin' my way

  G
I used to walk around a lot feelin' pretty small
C                    Cm          G             D
People said, "You're not so bad" so I stood up tall
G                                               C        Cm
Then my inner Napoleon said, "You could have it all!"
  G
I hit a curb and strained a nerve and headed for a fall

Chorus

G
Now I am a lonely mole back in the underground
        C                Cm                 G              D
Diggin' bigger hills and little hills cause I'm so tightly wound
G                                               C         Cm
Really am I all that bad takin' pennies for the pound
G
Cause even from the margins, lord, there comes a holy sound

Chorus
