[Verse 1]
G
Well I'm livin' with the mistakes I've made,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
G
I'm robbin' peter so Paul gets paid,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
[Chorus]
C G
I've strayed so far from the open road,
C D
I've been places my shadow refused to go.
[Verse 2]
G
I went to school but they called me slow,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
G
They couldn't teach me what I needed to know,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
[Chorus]
C G
My heart still breaks & my throat it swells,
C G
Like a dirty lump o' coal at the New Year bell's.
[Bridge]
Am C G
A song of hope to lift my spirits if you please,
Am C G
Or a tale of old rebellion if you dare,
Am C G
I hope I live to see the day I laugh at days like these,
Am D
And walk the walk of one without a care.

[Verse 3]
G
I'll shift my share but I won't shift the blame,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
G
I respect my neighbour and expect the same,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
[Chorus]
C G
I've strayed so far from the open road,
C D
I've been places my shadow refused to go.
[Verse 4]
G
I don't trust what I can't see,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
G
But I believe in something higher than me,
C D
plenty more where I'm from
[Chorus]
C G
My heart still breaks & my throat it swells,
C D
Like a dirty lump o' coal at the New Year bell's.
