D There's an old man sitting on a front porch now C F Talking about how it used to be When I was young I was a hell of a man My father died when I was ten I hit the road to find a job Had to feed my family Times were hard my hands are still scarred From the life I've had to lead D C D C G I was born to run Drove a tractor and trailer all my life Six kids and a hell of a wife Made lots of money it all slipped away A large family that's the price you pay I always dreamed never gave up Son, even when times got tough That's when I'd push it a little bit more You should've heard that engine roar Chorus: D I was born to run Can't slow down F C No regrets, I've been blessed D Born to run F C In time you'll see what the good Lord's done for me D Born to run I can't slow down F C No regrets, I did my best D Born to run In time you'll see F C D What the good Lord's done, done for me G D The old man, he passed away G C D And all he said never crossed my mind G D Until I saw the price he payed C D Was a lot like mine G D I'm full and though it's miles away G C D Gotta hit the city right on time G D C A And when I'm on I'll always sing little song of mine D I was born to run Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA C D F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
