[Intro]
C G D C
[Verse 1]
G D
So you're talking 'bout giving up
Em D C
Resigning
G D
Packing up that old truck
Em D C
And driving
G D
It's taken a hell of a lot
Em D C
Just surviving
G D
You crashed yourself on the rocks
Em C
Deciding
[Chorus]
C G
You're walking through your darkest hour
D
Running out of power
Em D C
Right before the dawn
G
Looking for a ray of light
D
In the midnight sky
Em D C
And time keeps moving on
G
But maybe you could roll that dice
D
One more time
Em D C
See if the number's strong
G
All it takes
D
Is just one break
Em D C G D
And you were alright all along
D C
Alright all along
[Bridge]
G D
I know that it's hard to fall
Em D C
You were climbing
G D
And hearing that thunder call
Em D C
Before the lightning
[Chorus]
C G
You're walking through your darkest hour
D
Running out of power
Em D C
Right before the dawn
G
Looking for a ray of light
D
In the midnight sky
Em D C
And time keeps moving on
G
But maybe you could roll that dice
D
One more time
Em D C
See if the number's strong
G
All it takes
D
Is just one break
Em D C G D
And you were alright all along
[Chorus]
C G
So won't you come back inside
D
Give me some of your time
Em D C
Promise not to take it all
G
Soon you'll be on your way
D
On to better days
Em D C
Saying look how far we've come
G
Maybe we could roll that dice
D
One more time
Em D C
See if the number's strong
G
All it takes
D
Is just one break
Em D C G D
And you were alright all along
Em D C G D C
Alright all along
[Outro]
G D
So you're talkin' 'bout givin' up
