[Verse]
D
There's do'ers and don'ters and I wills and won'ters
G D
and them, that don't even try
G D
Givers and takers, movers and shakers
E A
And them that are just passing by
D
Skidrows and winos and some folks that I know
G E
That don't do like I think they should
G A D G
I thought they were livin' their lifes all wrong
D A7 D
Long, before I understood
[Refrain]
G D
We all have to walk our own road
A7 D
We can't always go where we're told
G D G
In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows
D A7 D
But we all have to walk our own road
D
I've had some good times and I've had a good life
G D
And I've had things goin' my way
G D
I've walked the highground and treasures that I've found
E A
An' women who brightened my day
D
Then there were times I was caught in the crosswinds
G E
With life - goin' 'round and around
G A D G
Like a ship with no sail I was caught in a gale
D A D
Til I fin'ly just ran it a-ground
[Refrain](repeated)
