Gillian Welch – Put Your Foot Upon The Path (Guitar)

A
You've been living fancy fine

            D                 A
You've been doing as you please

A
This life of your design

     D                 A
Will bring you to your knees

A
Cause there is no road so rough

     D
Even angels feel the tread

A
But when you lose enough

D
No more circus and no more bread

D        A             C
Put your foot upon the path

D              C      A
Put your hands upon a plow

A                  C
Never be afraid to laugh

        D                  A
Just be glad that you know how

                  Em
You can turn your head away

        D
You can drive against the wind

    A         Em
You may leave another day

A   D         C         A
You may never laugh again

A
You could read your heart

       D         A
Like a book upon the shelf

A
Would you wrestle with the part

A         D         A
Be afraid to be yourself

A                   A
Cause the lines are very thin

     D                   A
Your bluff is already called

A                 A
It's a long, hard road of sin

               D
And that first step feels like a fall

D        A         C
Put your foot upon the path

D              C      A
Put your hands upon a plow

A                  C
Never be afraid to laugh

     D                A
Just be glad that you know how

A                 G
You can turn your head away

        D
You can drive against the wind

A             Am      Em
You may leave another day

        D     C     A
You may never laugh again

A       D     C         A
You may never laugh again
