D
There's do'ers and don'ters and I wills and won'ters
      G                     D
and them, that don't even try
G                   D
Givers and takers, movers and shakers
      E                         A
And them that are just passing by

D
Skidrows and winos and some folks that I know
      G                           E
That don't do like I think they should
    G                A       D               G
I thought they were livin' their lifes all wrong
D            A7       D
Long, before I understood


[Refrain]
   G                         D
We all have to walk our own road
    A7                          D
We can't always go where we're told
       G                             D         G
In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows
       D            A7           D
But we all have to walk our own road


D
I've had some good times and I've had a good life
    G                         D
And I've had things goin' my way
G                                D
I've walked the highground and treasures that I've found
     E                       A
An' women who brightened my day


D
Then there were times I was caught in the crosswinds
      G                        E
With life - goin' 'round and around
         G           A          D           G
Like a ship with no sail I was caught in a gale
       D           A         D
Til I fin'ly just ran it a-ground
