Bm A G/B A7/C# ********* This part comes
again a few times
during the song !
Verse 1 :
When you've [D]hitched every[(] h[D/F#]ighwa[)]y, and [G]rode all the rails
A (A9_A) D D/A
You're no longer afraid of the dark
You get t[D]ougher than le[D/F#]ather and [G]harder than nails
E E7 A A_G/B_A7/C#
When you've earned all the scars on your heart
Verse 2 :
H[D]obos and h[D/F#]eroes, b[G]ankers and [G/E]bums
In s[A]ome ways w[G]e're all the [D]same
We a[D]ll have to [D/F#]pay for the d[G]eeds that we've done
And w[A]ind up just dr[A]agg[A9]ing th[A]ose ch[D]ains
Refrain :
[Bm]Life paints a picture that [F#m]time can't e[G]rase
Em D/F# A4_A
Sometimes it cuts like a knife
[Bm]Sooner or later [F#m]one way or an[G]other
W[Em]e all wear the [A]tat[G/B]toos[A7/C#] of l[(]if[D]e[)]
Fill : D - - A - - Bm - - A G/B A7/C# D~ **** This is
a repeat
of the 2'nd
part of the
intro.
Verse 3 :
The g[D]lory in [D/F#]living is just [G]running the [G/E]race
[A]Not whether you w[G]in our you [D]fail[D/A]
The l[D]ines like a [D/F#]road map will s[G]how on your face
And your [A]eyes tell the re[A]st [A9]of t[A]he ta[D]le[D]
Refrain :
[Bm]Life paints a picture that [F#m]time can't e[G]rase
Em D/F# A4_A
Sometimes it cuts like a knife
[Bm]Sooner or later [F#m]one way or an[G]other
W[Em]e all wear the [A]tat[G/B]toos[A7/C#] of l[(]if[D]e[)]
