[Verse 1]

G        D
 Passing under barren skies
C         Am
 Waiting for our worlds to collide
        G
And there you are
   D      C Am
All alone feeling bad
G       D
 Interstate movin' again
C         Am
 Barrel through thick and thin
     G
Side by side
    D       C  G
To survive like creosote

[Chorus]

C
 Born under widespread changes
   G
The search for higher reason
C
 Learning the ropes okay
   Am         D
But fate just runs you around

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

G         D
 From Memphis to New Orleans
C        Am
 In and out of railroad dreams
    G
You're out there
   D      C Am
In scenes passing by
G         D
 Everyone faces what they deserve
C         Am
 A carousel to claim or curse
      G
Sticking around
   D      C  G
At least for the ride

[Chorus]

C
 Born under widespread changes
   G
The search for higher reason
C
 Learning the ropes okay
   Am         D
But fate just runs you around
