[G] the back [Em] road to [D] where I long [G] to be
[Em] The [D]
[G] world is changed, [Em] leaving only [D] the truth [G] intact
[Em] You [D]
[G] think it's a game, to me it means more than that
[D]

And [D] I've never had a penny [Am] drop
I'm a [D] song player with a [C] tall order
To [D] come out [B] on top
