[Intro]
Cadd9 Em D D (Change)
[Verse]
Cadd9 Em
That same road that brought you here
D D (Change)
Will sure as hell take you home
Cadd9 Em Dsus
The life you left behind will have you back
Cadd9 Em D
You're tired of paying dues in worn out shoes
D (Change)
and Broadway blues
Cadd9 Em Dsus
And any fool will tell you the damn ol' deck is stacked
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
What if you're just a vessel
Em
And God gave you something special
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Cadd9 Em
Every time you open up your mouth
A (Change) Em G (Change)
Diamonds come rolling out
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Em Cadd9
No ...
[Verse]
(same chords)
And all of the players, the movers, and shakers
The story maker suits have gone home
You drew the last slot
You thought it was your shot
But now it's just one more chance blown
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
What if you're just a vessel
Em
And God gave you something special
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Cadd9 Em
Every time you open up your mouth
A (Change) Em G (Change)
Diamonds come rolling out
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Em Cadd9
No ...
Em
And our town is cold as January
A (Change) Cadd9
Life comes true, and dreams get buried every day ...
Em Dsus Cadd9
Destiny won't be denied
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Cadd9 Em
Every time you open up your mouth
A (Change) Em G (Change)
Diamonds come rolling out
Cadd9 Em D
It ain't yours to throw away
Em Cadd9
No ...
It ain't yours to throw away
It ain't yours to throw away ...
Throw away
Cadd9 Em D D (Change) Dsus A (Change) G (Change)
