[Verse 1]

G
Well I'm livin' with the mistakes I've made,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from
G
I'm robbin' peter so Paul gets paid,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from

[Chorus]

C                            G
I've strayed so far from the open road,
         C                   D
I've been places my shadow refused to go.

[Verse 2]

G
I went to school but they called me slow,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from
G
They couldn't teach me what I needed to know,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from

[Chorus]

C                          G
My heart still breaks & my throat it swells,
       C                         G
Like a dirty lump o' coal at the New Year bell's.

[Bridge]

Am                        C              G
A song of hope to lift my spirits if you please,
     Am                           C  G
Or a tale of old rebellion if you dare,
Am                             C                  G
I hope I live to see the day I laugh at days like these,
    Am                             D
And walk the walk of one without a care.

[Verse 3]

G
I'll shift my share but I won't shift the blame,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from
G
I respect my neighbour and expect the same,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from

[Chorus]

C                            G
I've strayed so far from the open road,
C                            D
I've been places my shadow refused to go.

[Verse 4]

G
I don't trust what I can't see,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from
G
But I believe in something higher than me,
C                 D
plenty more where I'm from

[Chorus]

C                          G
My heart still breaks & my throat it swells,
       C                         D
Like a dirty lump o' coal at the New Year bell's.
