Am                                                                      C                            G              Am

Please don't dominate the rap Jack, if you got nothin' new to say. And also please, don't back up the tracks, this train's got to run today.

Am                                                                      C                            G                     Am

I spent a little time on the mountain, spent a little time on the hill.

Am                                                        C                     G                            D

Like some say, better run away; others say you better stand still.

Am                                                                             C       G                     Am

Now I don't know but I been told that it's hard to run with the weight of gold

Am                                                                             C              G

On the other hand, I've heard it said, it's just as hard with the

D

weight of lead

Am                                                               C                     G              Am

Who can deny, who can deny, it's not just a change of style. One step done and another begun, and I wonder how many miles.

Am                                                                      C                            G                     Am

I spent a little time on the mountain, spent a little time on the hill, I saw things getting out of hand but I guess they always will.

Am                                                                             C                     G                     Am

Well, I don't know, but I've been told in the heat of the sun a man died of cold

Am                                                                             C              G                     D

Keep on comin' or stand and wait with the sun so dark and the hour so late.

Am                                                                      C                     G                     Am

You can't overlook the lack, Jack, of any other highway to ride, It's got no signs or dividing lines, and very few rules to guide.

Am                                                                      C                     G                     Am

Now I don't know but I've been told if the horse don't pull you got to carry the load.

Am                                                                      C              G                                   D

I don't know whose back`s that strong; maybe find out before too long.

Am

One way or another, one way or another, this darkness has got to give.
