[Verse 1]
D G D
Pain pills started for a backache, doctor dropped me like a lead weight.
G D A G D
Now I cop off the interstate, bout 15 miles from here.
D G D
I’m not the type you would expect, I work harder than a son of a bitch.
G D A G D
Trying to raise up these three kids, And keep em clothed and fed.

[Pre-Chorus]
G D
What’s a man worth if he can’t work?
A Bm A
Was I really made as a rich man’s hammer?
G D A
Is this all there’ll ever be for me?

[Chorus]
G D A Bm A
I gotta change or I’m gonna die, I wanna live so I’m gonna try,
G D A
Give it my best, this ain’t a test I plan to fail.
G D
Where I come from, they’ll break a man,
A Bm A
What I got now, I built with these hands.
G D A
I’m not afraid to get a little dirt beneath my nails,
G Bm A
This ain’t a test I plan to fail.

[Verse 2]
D G D
Oxys beat me like I owed them money, Still on my feet and I feel like

running,
G D A G D
Maybe somewhere it’s always summer, And leave these cares behind.
D G D
But I’ve got folks who depend on me, I rise in the dark cause I still believe

there’s
G D A G D
Something good I just can’t see yet, Up around the bend.
