Strum
D-DU-UDU
Well  I came out swinging at the Center  field wall
 And I caught a fast ball and I touched them all
But  I burned down my  engines needed  a break
Where  all thats required is the time  that we take
Now  I'm done doing nothing,  I'm weary of rest
And  I've got to get back  to the quest
I've  ran out of reasons for laying  so low
 my memories will stay but my body must go
Back  to the thunder,  the rock  and the wheel
And  the truths on my love, only time  will reveal
And  I've just been forgiven  and I'm all confessed
so  I've got to get back  to the quest
In  one hand a ticket, in  the other, a bag
 Times have been good, it makes goodbye a drag
But  I wasn't born  to be standing  still alone
You  know, one day my tombstone will say "Born  to be gone"
Now  my posse is waiting  out to the west
Yes,  it's time to get back  to the quest
Time  to get back  to the quest
