[Intro]
 


[Verse]

You've been li

ving fancy fin

e
             
You've been do

              
ing as you ple

  
ase

This life of y

our design
             
Will bring you

         
 to your knees


[Verse]

Cause there is

 no road so ro

ugh
     
Even angels fe

el the tread

But when you l

ose enough

No more circus

 and no more b

read


[Chorus]
            
Put your foot 

         
upon the path
             
Put your hands

       
 upon a plow
             
Never be afrai

     
d to laugh
             
Just be glad t

             
hat you know h

ow
              
You can turn y

    
our head away
        
You can drive 

against the wi

nd
             
You may leave 


another day
            
You may never 

         
laugh again


[Verse]

You could read

 your heart
             
Like a book up

   
on the shelf

Would you wres

tle with the p

art
            
Be afraid to b

      
e yourself


[Verse]
             
Cause the line

      
s are very thi

n
             
Your bluff is 

           
already called
             
It's a long, h

    
ard road of si

n
              
And that first

 
 step feels li

ke a fall


[Chorus]
            
Put your foot 

     
upon the path
             
Put your hands

       
 upon a plow
             
Never be afrai

     
d to laugh
             
Just be glad t

        
hat you know h

ow
             
You can turn y

    
our head away
        
You can drive 

against the wi

nd
             
You may leave 

      
another day
             
You may never 

     
laugh again


[Outro]
            
You may never 

         
laugh again
