Push For The Stride

 Intro: E


 How many times have you woken up
              D
 To find your coffee's cold and a broken cup
          A
 That's a hell of a way
                 E
 To start your day

 How many times have you looked to the date
           D
 To find a calendar full of empty pages
        A
 What a hell of a way
                        E
 To see time flippin' away

         D
 Like a barrel down the hill keeps rolling faster
      C
 And circumstances become your master
        D
 And you realize
                                  C  G
 Your hands ain't on the wheel anymo-re

         A
 With the wind at your back and the sun at your side
          C          G          C
 Take the bull by the horns and ride
          G
 You gotta push for the stride
             D          A
 It wins the race every time


 So when you're low on steam
 but your aim is high
           C         G          C
 You gotta keep your eye on the prize
          G
 You gotta push for of stride
                        A
 It wins the race every time

     E
 Have you found yourself falling in a vicious dream
         D
 And you wake yourself up with a nasty scream
        A                                E
 It's a hell of a way to get through the night


 Have you opened up your heart to a promise made
         D
 Just to get it kicked back into yesterday
        A                                             E
 It's a hell of a way to lose all the ground that you gained

              D
 So when your spirits down and you mood is dark
         C
 Let the dark horse come and take you 'round
         D                                  C   G
 And you realize you're back in the saddle again.

      A
 With the wind at your back and the sun at your side
          C           G         C
 Take the bull by the horns and ride
           G
 You gotta push for the stride
    D                   A
 It wins the race every time
