[Intro]
G   C   Em   D
G   C   Em
[Verse 1]
I was Gstanding on the mountain with the Csun on my Emback
And the Gshadow I was casting made the Cworld seem Emblack
And if the Dshadow of one now can Gblock out the Csun
Then you’d Gbetter make sure that you Ccast the right Emone
[Verse 2]
You can Ghustle to your left, you can Chustle to your Emright
But you Ggotta put your back into someCthing someEmtime
And it can Dsend you down the river maybe Gtear you aCpart
But the Gonly path is the Cpath with Emheart
[Chorus]
So DI don’t care what the Gweather men Csay
You’ve got to Dparry with the weather till the Gend of your Cdays here
And if the Donly path is a Gpath with Cheart
Then DI lucked into a Ggood head Cstart
BmGood head Dstart
G   C   Em  D
G   C   Em
[Verse 3]
I felt I’d Gbeen down every alley, beaten Cdown every Emdoor
Till I could Gbarely account for what I’d been Clooking toEmward
And then Dshe took a turn into my Grecord storeC  
And I Gknew I wasn’t gonna Clook anyEmmore
[Chorus]
So DI don’t care what the Gweather men Csay
You’ve got to Dparry with the weather till the Gend of your Cdays here
And if the Donly path is a Gpath with Cheart
Then DI lucked into a Ggood head Cstart
BmGood head Dstart
[Bridge]
And it’s all about the context that you put things in
That you put us in, that we put ourselves in
Nothing hurts like a context
That you don’t want to be in
That’s a cage that I never want to see us all in
G   C   Em   D
G   C   Em
[Chorus 2]
So DI don’t care what the Gweather men Csay
You’ve got to Dparry with the weather till the Gend of your Cdays here
No DI don’t care what the Gweather men Cdo
Cause I can Dparry any weather much Gbetter with Cyou
And if the Donly path is a Gpath with Cheart
The path with Cheart
[Outro
Then GI lucked into a Cgood head Emstart
Then GI lucked into a Cgood head Emstart
Then GI lucked into a Cgood head Emstart
Then GI lucked into a Cgood head Emstart
G   C   Em   D
G   C   Em   D

[Intro]

G C Em D

G C Em

[Verse 1]

G C Em

I was standing on the mountain with the sun on my back

G C Em

And the shadow I was casting made the world seem black

D G C

And if the shadow of one now can block out the sun

G C Em

Then you’d better make sure that you cast the right one

[Verse 2]

G C Em

You can hustle to your left, you can hustle to your right

G C Em

But you gotta put your back into something sometime

D G C

And it can send you down the river maybe tear you apart

G C Em

But the only path is the path with heart

[Chorus]

D G C

So I don’t care what the weather men say

D G C

You’ve got to parry with the weather till the end of your days here

D G C

And if the only path is a path with heart

D G C

Then I lucked into a good head start

Bm D

Good head start

G C Em D

G C Em

[Verse 3]

G C Em

I felt I’d been down every alley, beaten down every door

Till I could barely account for what I’d been looking toward

D G C

And then she took a turn into my record store

G C Em

And I knew I wasn’t gonna look anymore

[Chorus]

D G C

So I don’t care what the weather men say

D G C

You’ve got to parry with the weather till the end of your days here

D G C

And if the only path is a path with heart

D G C

Then I lucked into a good head start

Bm D

Good head start

[Bridge]

And it’s all about the context that you put things in

That you put us in, that we put ourselves in

[Chorus 2]

D G C

So I don’t care what the weather men say

D G C

Cause I can parry any weather much better with you

D G C

And if the only path is a path with heart

The path with heart

[Outro
