      Bm                   A     G/B   A7/C#    ********* This part comes
                                                          again a few times
                                                          during the song !
 
 
 Verse 1 :
 
             D            ( D/F# )      G
 When you've hitched every highway, and rode all the rails
        A       (A9_A)             D     D/A
 You're no longer afraid of the dark
          D             D/F#      G
 You get tougher than leather and harder than nails
             E              E7             A      A_G/B_A7/C#
 When you've earned all the scars on your heart
 
 
 Verse 2 :
 
  D         D/F#    G          G/E
 Hobos and heroes, bankers and bums
     A         G            D
 In some ways we're all the same
     D          D/F#         G
 We all have to pay for the deeds that we've done
      A             A  A9    A     D
 And wind up just dragging those chains
 
 
 Refrain :
 
 Bm                         F#m         G
 Life paints a picture that time can't erase
  Em          D/F#         A4_A
 Sometimes it cuts like a knife
 Bm              F#m          G
 Sooner or later one way or another
  Em             A  G/B A7/C#  ( D )
 We all wear the tattoos of   life
 
 Fill : | D - - | A - - | Bm - - | A  G/B  A7/C# | D~ | **** This is
                                                             a repeat
                                                             of the 2'nd
                                                             part of the
                                                             intro.
 
 Verse 3 :
      D       D/F#           G           G/E
 The glory in living is just running the race
 A                G          D      D/A
 Not whether you win our you fail
      D           D/F#           G
 The lines like a road map will show on your face
          A               A  A9  A    D     D
 And your eyes tell the rest of the tale
 
 Refrain :
 
 Bm                         F#m         G
 Life paints a picture that time can't erase
  Em          D/F#         A4_A
 Sometimes it cuts like a knife
 Bm              F#m          G
 Sooner or later one way or another
  Em             A  G/B A7/C#  ( D )
 We all wear the tattoos of   life
 
 Fill : | D - - | A - - | Bm - - | A  G/B  A7/C# | D |
