COnce I was a Fcarpenter, and Dmman my hands were cFalloused I could Dmswing a metal Gmallet sure and CstraightG But CI took to the Fhighway, a Dmpoet young and Fhungry And I Dmleft the timbers Grotting where they Clay G
[Chorus]
ForFever I will move like the Fmworld that turns beneath me And when I Close my diAmrection I'll Glook up to the sky And when the Fblack cloak drags upon the ground I'll beFm ready to surrender, and reCmember Well we're Amall in this togetherG If I Flive the life I'm given, Fm I wont be scared to die C G C G

CI don't come from DFetroit, but her Dmdiesel motors Fpull me And I Dmfollowed till I Gfinally lost my Cway G And Cnow I spend my Fdays in search of a Dmwoman we called Fpurpose And if I Dmever pass back Gthrough her town I'll Cstay G

ForFever I will move like the Fmworld that turns beneath me And when I Close my diAmrection I'll Glook up to the sky And when the Fblack dress drags upon the ground I'll beFm ready to surrender, and reCmember Well we're Amall in this togetherG If I Flive the life I'm given, Fm I wont be scared to die

And Cmy life is but a Fcoin pulled fDmrom an empty pFocket Dropped inDmto a slot with dreams of Gsevens close beChind G CHope and fear go with Fit, and the Dmmoon and the sun go Fspinning Like the Dmnumbers and the Gfruits before our Ceyes
CSometimes I Fhit, someGtimes it robs me Cblind CSometimes I Fhit, someGtimes it robs me Cblind
[Chorus]
ForFever I will move like the Fmworld that turns beneath me And when I Close my diAmrection I'll Glook up to the sky And when the Fblack cloak drags upon the ground I'll beFm ready to surrender, and reCmember Well we're Amall in this togetherG If I Flive the life I'm given, Fm I wont be scared to die C
