INTRO: C G D G
C G
Got just enough sun to light my way
D G
Just enough cloud to give me shade
C G
Over my slow-down parade
D G
One-man band at the barricade
C G
One last stand of make believe
D G
One good memory I can retrieve
C G
One more devil that I will deceive
D G
One less reason that I’d rather leave
C G
Unblindfold the referee
D G
Don’t ask the wind what became of me
C G
I tend to stray from the pedigree
D G
Left off my sentence in Tennessee
C G
Need more strength, so I’m not afraid
D G
Need a scale, legal for trade
C G
A length of rope with a tighter braid
D G
Enough of a crowd so I can still get paid
C G
A tailored suit that won’t go to trial
D G
Bring your regrets, put them on the pile
C G
Trust these mountains to be here awhile
D G
Lend me your shoes, I’ll walk a mile
INSTRUMENTAL: C G D G C G D G
C G
In the indictment I wasn’t named
D G
Though you know I’ll get the blame
C G
I lost the ticket that wasn’t claimed
D G
I’m still here and I’m not ashamed
BRIDGE:
Em
Over here
D
Over here
C
My eyes are shot
D
But my vision’s clear
C G
With just enough sun to light my way
D G
Just enough cloud to give me shade
C G
Over my slow-down parade
D G
One-man band at the barricade
Em D C
One-man band at the barricade
