Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
I left my [Em]home as a young man
Still a boy, truth be told
Took [Am]my guitar, my troubled [Em]heart
[G]An' hit[Em] the road

[Interlude 1]
[Em]

[Verse 2]
I made my [Em]way 'cross an ocean
In search of somewhere to belong
Just a young [Am]buck...
[G]an' traveli[Em]n' on

[Verse 3]
I made my [Em]home in the
North Country Far
At a time when very few people [C]there
[Em]Looked like me
I made good friends who were
kind to [A]a stranger
An' his [Am]fam [Em]ily

[Verse 4]
[Em]
Some say I was born with a silver spoon
In my mouth
People, you know I've paid some dues
Born to play the guitar all
around [Am]the world
Born to sing [G]these [Am]blues...
[Em]

[Interlude 3]
[A][G][C][Em]

[Verse 5]
I settled [Em]down, got a straight job
Played my music on the side
Put food on the table, paid [Am]the rent
But I was not [Em]satisfied

[Verse 6]
[Em]
Pawned my guitar so many times
So many times it's a shame
But I kept [C]on playin'
[Em]- singin' my songs
[A]'Til the[Am] people knew my [Em]name

[Verse 7]
Knew my name
[Em]
Born with a silver [C]spoon
[Em]in my mouth...
People, you know I've
paid some [C]dues
[Em]Born to play the guitar all
around [Am]the world
Born to sing [G]these [Em]blues...[Am]
Born to sing [G]these [Em]blues[G]..[Em].

[Outro 1]
[G][Em]
