Verse 1:
A                   E            F#m                       D
   It couldn't ever dawned on me     All the things that I would be
  A            E                     D
I never really looked out quite that far
A                    E
   It's never been a simple thing
F#m                        D
   To see the world with a young man's brain                                         
A                E             D   
 With an old man's heart   restless soul
        A                    E
Yeah my family went broke my eighteenth year
F#m                    D
   Dad took a job many miles from here
     A                     E              D
That   that was alright by me    I was on my own
        A                  E
I had a band found a job   life was alright
  F#m                     D
I worked when I had to we played all the time
     A                E                     D
Only got through that first year of college alright

Chorus:
      D
But I learned more on the freight docks
        A                          E
Driving forklifts on the 3 o'clock am shift
                     A
In the winter time   man it got cold
        D                               A
Selling guitars on the west coast goin' hungry
              E                          A
Chasin' ghost around and around we would go
             D
And I saw it all tending bar at night 
A
Treatin' saints and sinners right
       E                        A
It's a good thing to do all the time 
          D
You never know who you're talkin' to
A
But always know who's watching you
          E                             A          D–A–E–A–D–A–E–A
Keep your feet movin' straight down the line

Verse 2:
A                      E            F#m
   I've known a lot of real good men   Grad school or no school
     D
I've called them my friends
A                             E                      D
   I'm   I'm somewhere in the middle and that's just fine 	                
         A                          E
Though I don't give a damn how much money you make
        F#m                   D
If your life sure has pockets take all you can
    A                    E                D
I'm   I'm goin' out with nothing   like I came

Chorus:
         D
'Cause I learned more on the freight docks
        A                          E
Driving forklifts on the 3 o'clock am shift
                     A
In the winter time   man it got cold
        D                               A
Selling guitars on the west coast goin' hungry
              E                          A
Chasin' ghost around and around we would go
             D
And I saw it all tending bar at night 
A
Treatin' saints and sinners right
       E                        A
It's a good thing to do all the time

You never know who you're talkin' to
A
But always know who's watching you
          E                             A          D–A–E–A–D–A–E–A
Keep your feet movin' straight down the line
