F  C  G  Am
F  C  G
 
 
Verse:
                        F                C
So don't you follow me down these broke roads
       G      Am
Where nobody goes
             F              C
Same little town, same old lows
            G
But we can put on a hell of a show
 
                        F
Where they call me the dreamer
 C                     G
You can say that it's true-ue
 Am                     F   C   G
Yeah, they call me the dreamer

Verse:
          Dm
How 'bout you, starin' up at the blue
           F
How 'bout you, fell in love with the few
          Am
How 'bout you Lord I'm telling the truth
           G
How 'bout you
 
                       Dm
'Cause we only feel defeated when forever ends
                        F
Tryin' to put together pieces of a better plan
                       Am
Tumbling through this life we'll never understand
                  G
So every now and then I forget who I am
 
 
Chorus:
                 F               C
'Cause I'm only human I make mistakes
                G                      Am
Let the day to day troubles get in the way
                      F                    C
Be careful with your heart it was made to break
                  G
Ain't no playing safe with one foot in the grave
 
              F               C
And I'm only human I make mistakes
                G                      Am
Let the day to day troubles get in the way
                   F                    C
Careful with your heart it was made to break
                  G
Ain't no playing safe
N.C.                  F   C      G  Am  F
With one foot in the grave, unh huh
 
 
Verse:
                       C              G
I'm travelling down an open highway (highway)
                               F           C
A thousand miles away from my home (my home)
               G           Am
Writing these songs (songs)
 
F                        C              G
And my emotions get the best of me lately
                                   Dm
Would you even recognize when I'm gone (I'm gone)
              F
Is it set in stone (stone)
                      Am
Like the lyrics of a sooong
            G
Forever unknown (known)
 
                   Dm
And I still carry damage from where it began
                    F
I'm haunted by the silence when the lights are dim
                      Am
Running through this life we'll never understand
                  G
So every now and then I forget who I am
 
 
Chorus:
                 F               C
'Cause I'm only human I make mistakes
                G                      Am
Let the day to day troubles get in the way
                      F                    C
Be careful with your heart it was made to break
                  G
Ain't no playing safe with one foot in the grave
 
              F               C
And I'm only human I make mistakes
                G                      Am
Let the day to day troubles get in the way
                   F                    C
Careful with your heart it was made to break
                  G
Ain't no playing safe
N.C.                  F   C   G
With one foot in the gra-ave
 
 
Outro:
 Am                   F   C        G
With one foot in the gra-ave, unh huh
