Em Em
come on , come on , gotta trust in something strong
D C
gotta keep them wheels on turning , die with the rest and wrong

Em Em
hang on , hang on , gonna beat that wind for long
D C
yeah , eat that dust and savior the road less traveled on

C
hey , ooooh

G D Em
but we got one shot to follow past our day
G D Em
by the time we’re though this machine will know our name
G D C
we’ll be shouting at the devil till we lay our head
G D Em
leave it to the fire , the steel , the tread

Em D C D

Em Em
come on , come on . before the hour at hand is gone
D C
gotta shake that pain and handle , broke the faith , the law
Em Em
hang on , hang on , gonna beat that wind for long
D C
yeah , eat that dust and savor the road less traveled on

C
hey , ooooh

G D Em
but we got one shot to follow past our day
G D Em
by the time we’re though this machine will know our name
G D C
we’ll be shouting at the devil till we lay our head
G D C
leave it to the fire , the steel , the tread
G D Em
leave it to the fire , the steel , the tread

C
oooohhhh
Em
oooohhhh
D
oooohhhh
C
oooohhhh

G

C
hey , ooooh

G D Em
but we got one shot to follow past our day
G D Em
by the time we’re though this machine will know our name
G D C
we’ll be shouting at the devil till we lay our head
G D C
leave it to the fire , the steel , the tread
