Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  got this ticket in my  hand
 And  I got a long,  long day ahead
 And I  got a hell of a lot of reasons  to be sad
 But I've got a hundred  more that keep  me coming  back
I  got these worn out red boots  on
 And  I got a brand  new favorite  song
 And  I can name some people who'd say that I  got it all wrong
 But I know  plenty more who've  been there all  along
 I'd rather make sandcastles
 Instead of these wide-world  decisions
 I knew,  I knew it all was catching  up to me, yeah
 And I don't have a plan  at all
 But I got this six-string religion
 And I  do, I do believe a song can  heal me
 It's enough for me,  yeah
I  had this picture in my head
Of  where I oughta  be and when
But  it's just like the good advice that John  gave when he said,
 "Life, it happens  while you're  busy making plans"
 I'd rather make sandcastles
 Instead of these wide-world  decisions
 I knew,  I knew it all was catching  up to me, yeah
 And I don't have a plan  at all
 But I got this six-string religion
 And I  do, I do believe a song can  heal me
 It's enough for me,  yeah
Where  I'm laughing is where I'm  home
But  you know how fast  it makes the time go
And  there was nothing like the first time that  I saw open road
 And wasn't terrified  to ride  it on my own
I  got my heart in the right place
But  that place is millions  of miles away
And  I suppose I never will know the perfect  words to say
 But I'll keep searching  till they find  me one fine day
 I'd rather make sandcastles
 Instead of these wide-world  decisions
 I knew,  I knew it all was catching  up to me, yeah
 And I don't have a plan  at all
 But I got this six-string religion
 And I  do, I do believe a song can  heal me
 It's enough for me,  yeah
 It's enough for  me, yeah  Oooh
 It's enough for me,  yeah
