^GWe were ^Dcarrying that ^Cheavy load ^Emtill one of ^Dus got tired ^Cof lifting ^Gwe were driving ^Ddown a dead^C end road ^Emin a car too^D far gone fo^Cr fixing^D

^Gand i still think about that summer ^Dand i still hear the sounds ^EmPetty on the radio i ^Cwont back down ^GI called you my brother ^Dbut you were closer than my kin and ^Emit kills me knowing you may never ^Cpass my way again but ^Gi hope every ^Dnow and ^Cthen ^Emyou look back ^Dfondly on the ^Cdays that ^Dwe were younger ^Gmen

^Gwe packed up that 350 ^Emford econiline ^Cwith hopes and dreams and other ^Gchildish things men learn to leave ^Dbehind ^Gwe spent a decade doing circles not ^Emknowing whats in store ^Ceach new town more magical ^Gthan the ^Dtown ^Cbefore

^Gbut we lost ^Dtrack of ^Ctime ^Emand the dark hair of our ^Dyouh started to ^Cwhiten ^Gi watched my fathers ^Dface become ^Cmine ^Emand the cruel hands of ^Dtruth start to ^Ctighten
