verse 1 
            D            ( D/F# )      G 
When you've hitched every highway, and rode all the rails 
       A       (A9 A)             D     D/A 
You're no longer afraid of the dark 
         D             D/F#      G 
You get tougher than leather and harder than nails 
            E              E7             A      A G/B A7/C# 
When you've earned all the scars on your heart 

verse 2 
 D         D/F#    G          G/E 
Hobos and heroes, bankers and bums 
    A         G            D 
In some ways we're all the same 
    D          D/F#         G 
We all have to pay for the deeds that we've done 
     A             A  A9    A     D 
And wind up just dragging those chains 
 
Bm                         F#m         G 
Life paints a picture that time can't erase 
 Em          D/F#         Asus4 A 
Sometimes it cuts like a knife 
Bm              F#m          G 
Sooner or later one way or another 
 Em             A  G/B A7/C#  ( D ) 
We all wear the tattoos of   life

verse 3 
     D       D/F#           G           G/E 
The glory in living is just running the race 
A                G          D      D/A 
Not whether you win our you fail 
     D           D/F#           G 
The lines like a road map will show on your face 
         A               A  A9  A    D     D 
And your eyes tell the rest of the tale
