[Verse 1]
     Cadd9          G           Cadd9             G
Well I work for the city in the town where I grew up
Cadd9             G     G/F#  Em7               Cadd9
Some days I run a backhoe and some days I run a dump
               G           Cadd9      G
If I had other plans on my graduation day
Cadd9               G    G/F#    Em7             Cadd9
Then several years ago I guess I hauled ‘em all away
                       G
Yeah I hauled ‘em all away
 
[Verse 2]
    Cadd9           G               Cadd9        G
She told me she was pregnant on the day I turned 18
    Cadd9              G        G/F# Em7            Cadd9
And I did what your supposed to do,  I bought her a ring
                  G              Cadd9       G
He didn’t have to ask us, but he asked us anyway
Cadd9           G        G/F#      Em7                Cadd9
We stood up and said, “I do.” What else were we gonna say?
                        G
What else were we gonna say?
 
[Chorus]
         D
Well I’m thankful for the things I have
    Em7              Cadd9
And all the things I don’t
    D
And I’ve got dreams that will come true
    Em7             Cadd9
And I got some that won’t
D                                  Em7         Cadd9
Most the time I just walk the line wherever it goes
     G         D                Cadd9                G     Cadd9  G
‘Cuz you can’t hang yourself if you ain’t got enough rope
 
[Verse 3]
   Cadd9           G        Cadd9           G
My boss man is the mayor, I do just what he ask
  Cadd9              G     G/F#      Em7               Cadd9
I mow the courthouse lawn, watch the prisoners walkin’ past
                G        Cadd9              G
I’m happy to be working, instead of wearin’ chains
Cadd9          G   G/F#    Em7             Cadd9
Like my cousin Willy, he’s locked up in La Grange
                     G
He’s locked up in La Grange
 
[Chorus]
        D
But I’m thankful for the things I have
    Em7              Cadd9
And all the things I don’t
    D
And I got dreams that will come true
  Em7           Cadd9
I got some that won’t
    D                                  Em7         Cadd9
But most the time I just walk the line wherever it goes
     G         D                Cadd9                G
‘Cuz you can’t hang yourself if you ain’t got enough rope

[Verse 4]
          Cadd9           G          Cadd9            G
There’s a tavern down the highway, I go to drink some beers
    Cadd9             G   G/F#   Em7            Cadd9
And wash down all I’m missin’ by hangin’ around here
                         G          Cadd9          G
Then I drive back to the trailer; I makeup with my wife
  Cadd9             G      G/F#    Em7             Cadd9
I kiss my sleeping children, and I get on with my life
                       G
Yeah I get on with my life
