G                   C                  G
I was sittin' in a bar, just a-wastin' my time
    G                       D                     G
When a man walked in with a bag full of dust
G               C                    G
He said, "Son, I can give you what you crave
    G                   D                  G
But you gotta promise me that you won't lose your way"

G                     C                     G
'Cause this dust in a baggie, it ain't just for show
     G                 D                  G
It'll take you so high, make you feel like a pro
G            C                   G
But once you come down, you might lose your mind
    G                   D                     G
So think about it, son, before you cross that line

G                     C                  G
Now I ain't one to judge, I've been down that road
       G                   D                    G
But the high ain't worth the weight of the load
G                     C                  G
So I took that baggie and I set it aside
      G                 D                  G
And I raised my glass to the man and I cried

G                   C                    G
"Here's to the ones who ain't lost their way
    G                      D               G
Who fight their own battles and live for today
G                  C                   G
There's more to this life than just chasin' the high
      G                    D                  G
So I'll take my chances, I'll be alright"
