[Verse 1]
Bm F# G D
I found a friend in you
Bm F# E A
Someone to call when my day was through
Bm F# G
But on this road it's clear
A# A
That nothing is precious
Bm
And nothing comes cheap
E G A
In a time spent sucking on a thorn so deep
[Verse 2]
Bm F# G D
Big daddy on the road
Bm F# E A
The hardest hand that I've ever hold
Bm F# G A#
I don't know how long you can keep
A
Beating yourself up
Bm E
And pleading with God for a good night's rest
G A
And a steady job
[Chorus]

And something said then thrown away into the breeze
[Verse 3]
Bm F# G D
The question on your lips
Bm F# E A
The burden of my innocence slips
Bm F# G
I'm searching night as is
A# A
I'm keeping my promise
Bm
I won't feed the storm
E
I'm a canvas clean
G A
There's a baby born
[Verse 4]
Bm F# G D
I am a jungle gym
Bm F# E A
Remove your shoes and baby climb in
Bm F# G A#
I am a home for men like you
A Bm
Who chew at the bit for a pony to ride
E G A
Til the day grows dim and tomorrow slides by
[Chorus]
D F#m C G
Something reminded me of a nice encounter Wednesday
A# F C G
And something said then thrown away into the breeze
[Bridge]
D F#m
Darling I won't forget
C G
All the times we spoke of our regrets
A# F
And walked back to the lives we left
C G
On days like these
[Outro]

But on this road it's clear

That nothing is precious

And nothing comes cheap
