Strum
D-DU-UDU
Someone  left a child and  did not even care
 Before the first  shots of the battle here had even  pierced the air
 Yes, they run  now like them children to those arms  of mother earth
 Trying to pretend  as if there was a day before  their very birth
 But me, I  just grab these ropes  that me and mine  have left behind
 And I stare  up to that mountain  that I know  I got to climb
 I keep towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mm-mmmm
 I keep towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mmmm
Well  down in basements choked with smoke  child of the past
 All them dreams  come up for air round here but they  can only gasp
 All them old  men they sit staring as life slips  out from their grips
 Only to fall  and disappear beyond their cracked  old fingertips
 But me, I  just grab these ropes  me and mine  have left behind
 And I stare  up to that daemon  that I know  has got to die
 I keep towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mm-mmmm
 I keep towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mmmm
 I keep towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mm-mmmm
 I keep towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mmmm
But  down in ditches by that road  I call my own
 All of you  come up cussin' now and all  just throwing stones
 Yes they're big  men now to settle down and life's  so stale and cold
 As if I  could ever do the way they do  just as they're told
 
 So if  you should find me living low when the miles have passed me by
 And it seems  that I have left  now all that I  could love behind
 I'm just towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mm-mmmm
 I'm just towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mmmm
 I'm just towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mm-mmmm
 I'm just towin' that line  - Mm-mmm-mmmm
 I'm a big fan of accurate, legible, and neatly formatted charts that are
 typically true to studio versions, with noted exceptions.
