Intro: E5 D5 A5 E5 2x
E5 D5 A5 E5
Well, I know how it feels to be ripped from my roots
E5 D5 A5 E5
And tossed into a world unbending.
E5 D5 A5 E5
Not long ago I was bitten by the truth
E5 D5 A5 E5
Some folks spend their whole life pretending.
D5 A5
Now I start each mornin' with the sunlight by my side
E5 D5 A5 E5
Find another highway, hitch another ride
D5 E5 A5
And I use this six-string like an archer wields his bow
C5 D5
I believe when the arrow finds its mark
It pierces the soul.
E5 G5 E5
Three songs for a quarter each time I open my case
E5 G5 E5
Four chords and the voice of a good man fallen from grace
E5 G5 D5 E5 G5
No pity for me mister, I'm proud to be a drifter
C5 A5
A long shot from bein' a star
C5 G5 A5 G5
You know, the times ain't been easy
D5 F5 A5 A5 E5
For me and my Homeless Guitar.
E5 D5 A5 E5
Now I know how it feels to be judged in a glance
E5 D5 A5 E5
Stripped of your pride and your passion.
E5 D5 A5 E5
I only know that the rivers of the soul
E5 D5 A5 E5
Run deeper than birthright or fashion.
D5 A5
I see you look me over, feel the weight of your stare
E5 D5 A5 E5
I'm sendin' you a message but you act like you don't care.
D5 E5 A5
I see a ripple, a crack in your facade
C5 D5
You know, it really don't matter who you think you are
We're the same under God.
(Chorus)
A5 C5
I thank the Lord above for the gift He's given me
E5 G5
I'm richer than most men
E5
Got a friend in my six-string
A5 C5
In a world where trust ain't got no guarantee
D5
If you ain't got a penny
B5
Gonna sing you this song for free, yeah. Akkorde wie Chorus
(Chorus)
D5 A5
Oh, I use these six-strings like an archer wields his bow
C5 D5
I believe when the arrow finds its mark
It pierces the soul.
Chorus
C5 G5 A5 G5
You know, the times ain't been easy
D5 F5 A5 A5 E5
For me and my Homeless Guitar.
