B I spent half my life down a dead-end road F# This honky-tonk liven it’s all I know G#m7 E I’m a rough neck that wrote a few songs B I gave it all I got to have what’s on my back F# It’s a hard-earned dollar When you make your own path G#m7 E Ask my babies I’m never at home Chorus: B Cause if it was easy F# I guess we’d all do it if its guaranteed G#m There was nothin to lose but the struggle E Oh, the struggle's what makes you strong B F# Cause it’s not like me to lay down and die, no G#m Not after all the things that I’ve saw E Yeah, it keeps me hanging on B That’s what it takes to follow a song I've been in some places I never should've gone Did a little bit of right, and a whole lot of wrong I was hell-bound Lord knows I didn't stand a chance But he sent me an angel who was there all along She's still waiting there right back at home And these other girls, Lord knows I never give 'em a second glance Chorus - x2 That’s what it takes to follow a song You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsB  E  F#  G#m  G#m7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
