Intro (x2)
A# D# Gm F
[Verse]
A# D#
Early morning in a motel room,
Gm F
Sunshine trying to creep on through.
A# D#
Lost sleep but I found a tune,
Gm F
Stuck inside my head.
A# D#
Cigarettes, a tank of gas,
Gm F
Headed off to nowhere fast,
A# D# Gm F
Gotta find a way to make this feeling last.
[Chorus]
A# D#
'Cause I believe that I,
Gm F
Was born with a song inside of me.
A# D#
Never question why,
Gm F
I just keep on singing that melody.
A# D#
And as time goes by,
Gm F D#
Oh it's funny how time can make you realize,
Gm F
We're running out of it.
[Verse]
A# D# A#
On the day that I die,
F A#
I wanna say that I,
D# A# F A#
Was a man who really lived and never compromised.
D# A#
I want to live out my days,
F A#
Until the very end,
D# A#
I hope they find me in my home
F A#
With my guitar in my hands.
D# A#
I hope they find me in my home
F A#
With my guitar in my hands.
[Instrumental]
A# D# Gm F
[Verse]
A# D#
F part of dawn to be ashamed of,
Gm F
But good people are supposed to be up.
A# D#
But I found peace with this path I took,
Gm F
As I lay down my head.
A# D#
Crossroads you gotta choose,
Gm F
Which way could be win or lose.
A# D# Gm F
But every morning my soul seems to sing on through.
[Chorus]
A# D#
'Cause I believe that I,
Gm F
Was born with a song inside of me.
A# D#
Never question why,
Gm F
I just keep on singing that melody.
A# D#
And as time goes by,
Gm F D#
Oh it's funny how time can make you realize,
Gm F
We're running out of it.
