The Price You Pay

	  		
Intro: G   C G   C G D   Bm   G   C G   C G D   G   

                                       C 
You make up your mind, you choose the chance you take 
                       G                    D 
You ride to where the highway ends and the desert breaks 
              G                  C 
Out on to an open road you ride until the day 
              G           D           C 
You learn to sleep at nigth with the price you pay 

               G                                          C 
Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies 
        G                                          D 
And in one last breath they built the roads they'd ride to their death 
             G                           C 
Driving on through the night, unable to break away 
          G          D         C 
From the restless pull of the price you pay 

          G                     C 
Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay 
               G       D          C 
Now you can't walk away from the price you pay 

           G                       C 
Now they'd come so far and they'd waited so long 
                G                        D 
Just to end up caught in a dream where everything goes wrong 
           G                            C 
Where the dark of night holds back the light of day 
                  G            D          C 
And you've gotta stand and fight for the price you pay 

          G                     C 
Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay 
               G       D          C 
Now you can't walk away from the price you pay

                                                            C 
Little girl down on the strand with that pretty little baby in your hands 
        G                           D 
Do you remember the story of the promised land 
                    G                                    C 
How he crossed the desert sands and could not enter the chosen land 
                     G             D             C 
On the banks of the river he stayed to face the price you pay 

            G                                     C 
So let the game start, you better run you little wild heart 
         G                                      D 
You can run through all the nights and all the days 
                     G                                        C 
But just across the county line, a stranger passing through put up a sign 
                     G                   Em         C                     G 
That counts the man fallen away to the price you pay, and girl before the end of the day 
D                           C 
I'm gonna tear it down and throw it away
