Well while I'm banned I may as well do something constructive. So here are the chords
an absolutely fantastic song by Chris Knight. Its very simple and if you want to get an
of how to play it listen to the song. Which if your here your probably already will have done.
VERSE 1

Well I work for the city in the town where I grew up.
CGEmC
Some days I run a backhoe some days I run a dump.

If I had other plans on my graduation day,

Yeah I hauled ?em all away.
VERSE 2

CGEmC
I did what your supposed to do. I bought her a ring.

He didn?t have to ask us, but he asked us anyway.
CGEmC
We stood up and said, ?I do.? what else were we gonna say?
G
What else were we gonna say?
CHORUS

Well I?m thankful for the things I have,
EmC
And all the things I don?t.
D
I?ve got dreams that will come true,

Most the time I just walk the line wherever it goes.
GDCG
?Cuz you can?t hang yourself if you ain?t got enough rope.

He?s locked up in the grange.

I?ve got dreams that will come true,

Most the time I just walk the line wherever it goes.

There?s a tavern down the highway, I go to drink some beers.

I kiss my sleeping children, and I get on with my life.
