Stronger Back chords by Don Williams

Verse:
C                 G
I had ev'rything, lost it all
 C                      F
I built towers of gold, watched em fall
Am
I tried my best
       F                         G
But I guess my best just wasn't good enough

C                 G
I made promises. Broke em
C                               F
I've laid loved ones lives wide open
               Am                     F
And I've got a broken heart but I've come this far
             G
And I ain't givin up

Chorus:
             F                            C
I pray for a stronger back, I pray for a bigger heart
               G                F              C
I pray for the will to keep on walkin when the way is dark
               F                         Am
I follow that windin road just tryin to stay on track
                    F             G                   C
I don't pray for a lighter load I pray for a stronger back

Verse:
C                       G
I've seen losers get a second chance
C                       F
I've seen miracles from happenstance
Am                   F                       G
I've seen long shots come from way behind To win the race
C                G
And I've dreams blow up in a cloud of smoke

It's a world of pain, it's a world of hope
C                       F
And it's dark right now but I know somehow
     Dm               C                F                G
Some day the sun will find some way to shine down on my face

Chorus:
              F
I pray for a stronger back
             C
I pray for a bigger heart
               G               F                      C
I pray for the will to keep on walkin when the way is dark
              F                         Am
I follow that windin road just tryin to stay on track
                   F              G                   C
I don't pray for a lighter load I pray for a stronger back

F                                       Am
I follow that windin road just tryin to stay on track
                   F                                  C
