**** In the brackets ie( ) are little walkdowns in between lines one quick strum on each chord then go into next line. Intro:       (x2) Never owned a brand new car never worked in a white collar Never held a woman longer than I held one single dollar Never went out chasin’ rainbows cause there can’t be that much to it Even if I found my pot of gold I’d probably piss right through it                                                  ( ) I can’t remember ever wanting for one second of my life                                                 ( ) Even if I did it cost too much to ever pay the price                                                           ( ) I don’t dance out on the dark side ain’t no secrets I can tell So you don’t have to say a prayer for me I just said one for myself Chorus: I’m livin’ my li--fe under my terms I’m callin’ the shots as far as I can see I don’t owe nobody nothin’ I don’t answer to a soul Might not work for you     but it works for me      (x2) I’ve been bent and bruised and broken and flat busted once or twice I brought most of it upon myself but I never compromised My pride’s too hard to swallow so I’ve chewed a lot of it Mild mannered and soft hearted and hard headed as you get                                                    ( ) I live out on the backroads where I walk my country mile                                                    ( ) And if it’s so good in the city why don’t anybody smile                                                         ( ) The traffic’s always heavy and the air ain’t fit to breathe I ain’t saying that it’s wrong for you it just don’t make sense to me REPEAT CHORUS
