G                        Cadd9          G
Well I headed out down a dark and dusty trail

            Cadd9         G  D/F#       Em7        D/F#
Through the mire and the fog into the abyss I set sail

G                                      Cadd9                 G
When my ship finally came ashore I was broke and singing the blues

    D/F#        Em7           D/F#          G
But they said I was doing what I was born to do

G                                          Cadd9           G
Cause some folks are meant to shine like a diamond in the sun

         Cadd9         G   D/F# Em7                     D/F#
Some are meant to burn out long before their time has come

G                          Cadd9              G
Somewhere in the middle is where I've paid my dues

D/F#   Em7       D/F#               G
Doing what they said I was born to do
[Chorus]
Em7          Cadd9           G                     D/F#
Oh can you hear them engines rumbling through the night

Em7                      Cadd9              D/F#
The truth is most of the time we just spend riding

Em7              Cadd9       G                     D/F#
Dreaming of back home and all the folks we've left behind

Em7              Cadd9              D/F#
As the miles and years just keep on flying

G
But I've had some good friends with me

            Cadd9             G
And they've helped me make it through

          D/F#  Em7         D/F#                 G
They said we    were  doing what we were born to do
[Interlude} G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D/F# Em7 D/F# G Cadd9 G D/F# Em7 D/F# G [Verse 2]
G                      Cadd9          G
Somehow I ended up in Nashville Tennessee

                Cadd9          G      D/F#    Em7         D/F#
They said I had lightning in a bottle and the world at my feet

G                                 Cadd9                 G
But what they wanted from me no I could not stand to lose

    D/F#        Em7           D/F#          G
But they said I was doing what I was born to do

G                                             Cadd9              G
Cause I've climbed the highest mountains I've felt the sharpest falls

            Cadd9          G   D/F#     Em7                 D/F#
I've had my moments in the sun and they've damn near cost me all

              G                                 Cadd9               G
But there are some things in this life that are much worse than the noose

D/F#     Em7      D/F#                  G    D/F# Em7
When you're doing what you were born to do
[Chorus]
Em7           Cadd9           G                     D/F#
Oh can you hear them engines rumbling through the night

Em7                      Cadd9              D/F#
The truth is most of the time we just spend riding

Em7               Cadd9             G                D/F#
I dreaming of back home and all the folks we've left behind

Em7              Cadd9              D/F#
As the miles and years just keep on flying

G
But I've had some good friends with me

            Cadd9               G
And they've helped me make it through

     D/F#     Em7       D/F#                 G
They said we were  doing what we were born to do
[Outro]
G
But I've had some good friends with me

            Cadd9               G
And they've helped me make it through

     D/F#         Em7           D/F#         G
They said we were doing what we were born to do
