Tuning: Standard   CAPO 1

Well, this song is played mostly on piano, but this is how I play it on acoustic guitar.

CAPO 1

Intro:
G  Em  Am  F#/D (x2)

G                    Em
Life's ride down the river
                 Am
Everyday getting clearer
                      F#/D
All the while getting nearer

We all belong

G                     Em
This place we've been delivered
                       Am
Take the good with the bitter
            F#/D
Some may dismiss you

We all belong

G
When you and I
Em
We Were so far
Am
We were so far
F#/D
Away from here and
G           Em
All my life been gambling times
Am
Been evading mines
F#/D
Away from here

        Am            Am/G     F#/D    Em
And the roads they'll take you down
        Am          Am/G                   F#/D    Em
And the winds sweep your feet off the ground
        C                 A/C#    D      Eb5*
And the wheels they won't turn around
        C          A/C#       D     Eb5*
On that road that leads outta town

I've found

G
When you and I
Em
We Were so far
Am
We were so far
F#/D
Away from here and
G           Em
All my life been gambling times
Am
Been evading mines
F#/D
Away from here

Am            Am/G     F#/D    Em
And the roads they'll take you down
        Am          Am/G                   F#/D    Em
And the winds sweep your feet off the ground
        C                 A/C#    D      Eb5*
And the wheels they won't turn around
        C          A/C#       D     Eb5*
On that road that leads outta town

I've found

G
When you and I
Em
We Were so far
Am
We were so far
F#/D
Away from here and
G           Em
All my life been gambling times
