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