As recorded by Cody Johnson (2024 release) [Intro] Bm7 G D A Bm7 G D A [Verse 1]
          Bm7
I've been good-time drunk

             G
Enough to be bad-time sober

        D                                   A
Broke a map dot's heart when it disappeared over my shoulder

          Bm7
I've been head strong right and dead end wrong

G
Good with God, but I dropped the ball

         D
Spend my whole life holding on

    A
But even when I fell off
[Chorus]
                       Bm7
The ride was worth the fall

                       G
The fall was worth the smiles

                          D
The smiles were worth the tears

                         A
The tears were worth the miles

                     Bm7
Miles were worth the pain

                  G
Pain was worth it all

                    D
It's all worth this life

                      A
The life is worth the ride

                      Bm7  G A
The ride is worth the fall
[Verse 2]
          Bm7
Had some "nowhere near it"s

          G
And some "almost was"s

          D
Left some mommas in tears

         A
And some daddy's still cussin'

              Bm7
'Cause what I should done and what could been

     G                               D                   A
Even knowin' now what I didn't know, then I'd climb back on again
[Chorus]
                       Bm7
The ride was worth the fall

                       G
The fall was worth the smiles

                          D
The smiles were worth the tears

                         A
The tears were worth the miles

Miles were worth the pain

Pain was worth it all

It's all worth this life

The life is worth the ride

The ride is worth the fall
