Intro
Em C x2
[Verse 1]
Em C
My daddy was a southern baptist deacon,
Em C
On the good book, I was born and raised.
Em C
But I never quite bought into the preaching:
Em D
Too much fear, too much hate.
[Verse 2]
Em C
So I drifted from my faith out of high school,
G D
I questioned things that I could not see.
Em C
That's when they told my dad that we weren't welcome back
G D
and they were gonna be praying for me.
[Chorus 1]
C D
He said: Son, the road it ain't easy,
G C
it's all just a series of mistakes.
G D C
But you gotta learn how to take
G D C
the bruises with the breaks,
Em D C
the love with the heart-aches,
D Em
the crooked with the straight.
[Break]
Em C x2
[Verse 3]
Em C
So I wandered through my twenties uninspired.
Em C
I got my education at the end of the bar.
Em C
And I traded in my youth for three chords and the truth,
Em D
and the ring of an electric guitar
[Verse 4]
Em C
And we made all these plans, we were gonna take a stand,
G D
set out, and rise above the noise.
Em C
But after all these shows we played, their fight began to fade,
G D
and as they walked away, I heard my fathers voice.
[Chorus 2]
C D
He said: Son, the road it ain't easy,
G C
it's all just a series of mistakes.
G D C
But you gotta learn how to take
G D C
the bruises with the breaks,
Em D C
the love with the heart - aches,
D Em
the crooked with the straight.
[Solo]
Em C D D# x2
[Chorus 3]
C D
And he'd say: Son, the road it ain't easy,
G C
it's all just a series of mistakes.
C D
And son, you might not believe me,
G C
but I promise you one of these days:
G D C
That you gonna learn how to take
G D C
the bruises with the breaks,
Em D C
the love with the heart - aches,
D Em
the crooked with the straight.
[Outro]
Em C x4
