[intro]
(ver1)
[Em] How did all those [C] years line up behind [G] me
 [Em] Stacks of [C] money can't buy back [G] time
[Em] Go fill your soul [C] and you'll find peace
[Em] Or an endless search will [C] drive you [G] blind
(chorus)
[C] Roads rise and fall [G] before us.
[C] The climb is hard, the work is [G] real
[C] Dreams aren't free, go out and earn'em.
[D] You get nowhere, [C] sitting [G] still.
[D] You get nowhere, [C] sitting [G] still.
(ver2)
[Em] Prophets, preachers, [C] pimps and the self [G] righteous.
[Em] All line [C] up and ply their [G] trade.
[Em] True wisdom [C] comes from what you need to [G] hear
[Em] Selling sweet words [C] is how they're  [G] paid.
(chorus)
[C] Roads rise and fall [G] before us.
[C] The climb is hard, the work is [G] real
[C] Dreams aren't free, go earn'em.
[D] You get nowhere, [C] sitting [G] still.
[D] You get nowhere, [C] sitting [G] still.
[breakdown]
(bridge )
[Em] Mend bridges
[G] if you need too
[Em] Swallow foolish pride, 
[G] its hard to do .
[Em] Be remembered 
[G] before you leave here.
[D] Let the last words you say be I love you
(chorus)
[C] Roads rise and fall [G] before us.
[C] The climb is hard the work is [G] real
[C] Dreams aren't free,  go earn'em.
[D] You get nowhere, [C] sitting [G] still.
[D] You get nowhere, [C]sitting [G] still.
[D] You get nowhere, [C] sitting [G] still.
