[D] [Dm]
[D] [F]
[D] Born with a bullet in my [F] blood, dust in my teeth, smoke in my [G] lungs
cried to a God that was blind [Dm] I learned young that [G] mercy's hard [D] to find
Leather hands and broken [F] bones Still in bread just to bring it [G] home
Preacher said I'd run where I stood [F] Guess he was right, [G] but I never [D] would've stood
[Dm] [Bb] No cross, no crown, [C] just dirt dragging me down
[D] I was born [F] for the dust, [C] for the rust, for the broken roads
[D] [F]
[D] Born with a bullet in my [F] blood, dust in my teeth, smoke in my [G] lungs
cried to a God that was blind [Dm] I learned young that [G] mercy's hard [D] to find
Leather hands and broken [F] bones Still in bread just to bring it [G] home
Preacher said I'd run where I stood [F] Guess he was right, [G] but I never [D] would've stood
[Dm] [Bb] No cross, no crown, [C] just dirt dragging me down
[D] I was born [F] for the dust, [C] for the rust, for the broken roads
