[Verse]
G#m
There's a train headed west
E
With a guitar and a chest
B
Full of songs
F#
That ain't been sung
G#m
And there's a heart that needs some rest
E
And a soul that's done its best
B
To find where the leaving goes
F#
Before it's gone
[Chorus]
G#m
Nah, I ain't found no peace yet chasing that sunset
E
Looking for my piece of gold
B
Yeah, I'm tired of watching y'all eat, I'ma get my seat
D#m
Without losing my soul
G#m
And I'm going for broke
E
Hush hush, get some sleep and close those eyes
No, don't you worry
B
Don't pay no mind
D#m
I'ma sneak right in like a thief in the night
And only take what's owed
G#m
I'm going for broke

[Verse]
G#m
I'll trade these tears in for dollars
E
I been saving 'em all this time
B
And this town'll run outta money
F#
Long before I run outta wrongs and rights
G#m
And I faced all my fears
E
I've looked the Devil in his eyes
B
'Cause when you hit rock bottom
F#
That's when you truly learn how to fly
[Chorus]
