Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste: Sem capotraste
[Verse 1]
G D Em C
Woke up each mornin', to the sound of my own grind,
G D Em C
They say I found fortune, but hard work's where it intertwines.
G D Em C
I never reached out, hands beggin' for a dime,
G D Em C
Dreamt big, worked hard, every mountain I did climb.
[Chorus]
G D Em C
They say luck found me, but the truth's not quite so clear,
G D Em C
The harder I worked, the more "luck" seemed to appear.
G D Em C
In the face of deceit, to honesty, I did steer,
G D Em C
Facing the man in the mirror, no shadows, no fear.
[Verse 2]
G D Em C
Trust was a currency, that often came up short,
G D Em C
Best friends took their toll, betrayal of the worst sort.
G D Em C
Never took from another, kept my dealings straight and true,
G D Em C
But can't say the same for those I thought I once knew.
[Bridge]
Am Em D C
Turned away from the heavens, still felt His grace so near,
Am Em D C
In darkest times, His light would always reappear.
Am Em D C
He forgave me, taught me to forgive those who betray,
Am Em D C
With His strength, I found my way, come what may.
[Chorus]
G D Em C
They say luck found me, but the truth's not quite so clear,
G D Em C
The harder I worked, the more "luck" seemed to appear.
G D Em C
In the face of deceit, to honesty, I did steer,
G D Em C
Facing the man in the mirror, no shadows, no fear.
[Verse 3]
G D Em C
Life's full of runners, from their truth, they hide,
G D Em C
But I’ve lived honest, with arms and heart open wide.
G D Em C
God beside me, even when I was lost and blind,
G D Em C
In Him and hard work, my purpose, I did find.
[Outro]
G D Em C
So here's my tale, of sweat, tears, and time so dear,
G D Em C
Chasing dreams, conquering fear, year after year.
G D Em C
Always remember, to the man in the mirror, be sincere,
G D Em C
For with honesty and faith, the path ahead is clear.
