[Verse]
D A
i paid my dues and i done my time
Bm G D
had my fair share of women that aint no lie
D A
travelled clear across the country just to get away
Bm G D
with a dollor in my pocket at the end of the day
[Chorus]
D A
and i toss my coin into a wishing well
Bm G D
guess i paid god just to burn in hell
D A
if it dont kill you, it'll keep you strong
Bm G D
theres only one way to learn right from wrong,
D A
just keep your chin up and hold yer head up high
Bm G D
dont let an opportunity pass you on by
D A
take a deep breath of the cool night air
Bm G D
to feel the roaring of the engines and the wind in your hair
D A Bm G D
in your hair in your hair in your hair ,in your hair
[Verse]
D A
put a price on freedom baby it aint cheap
Bm G D
i hitchen outa town and on a train i leap
D A
I'm gunna catch my dinner on the end of my line
Bm G D
and wash it all down with a bottle of wine
D A
then i met a woman that aint even the start
Bm G D
well she must of been a thief because she stole my heart
D A
so i carved her out a ring and asked if she'd be mine
Bm G D
she replied with a kiss and then she tossed me a dime
[Chorus]
D A
and i toss my coin into a wishing well
Bm G D
guess i paid god just to burn in hell
D A
if it dont kill you, it'll keep you strong
Bm G D
theres only one way to learn right from wrong,
D A
just keep your chin up and hold yer head up high
Bm G D
dont let an opportunity pass you on by
D A
take a deep breath of the cool night air
Bm G D
to feel the roaring of the engines and the wind in your hair
D A Bm G D
in your hair in your hair in your hair ,in your hair
