Capo 1
[Intro]
 G
[Verse 1]
GI?ve been all around Gutter Town, Flookin? for a better frown
CBeatin? on misery?s Gdoor
Lookin? high and lookin? low, I Fguess I?m one of those lost souls
Who Cjust don?t quite fit in no Gmore
Drifting, used and feeling down, Fstaring at another round
CWill nighttime turn into Gday
Take in good times when you?re blue, will Fthere be someone there for you
When you?re Cdyin? on your dyin? Gday
[Chorus] x2
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou      
[Verse 2]
GRacing down that wreckless road?s got Fhard advice that we all know
CTake what you can and learn from Git
I once saw a Satanist lose his life, he was Frollin? in the Devil with his dice
I Cguess he was ready to call it Gquits.
Fightin? all night just to keep in line, Ftryin? too hard not to lose my mind
CWatchin? all the folks doin? the Gsame
I?ve been all around Gutter Town, Flookin? for a better frown
CWhy can?t no one here remember my Gname?
[Chorus] 
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou     
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou  
[Verse 2]
GRacing down that wreckless road?s got Fhard advice that we all know
CTake what you can and learn from Git
[Chorus]
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou  
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou  
[Verse 3]
I?ve Ghad hard times tryin? to beat my wife, but I Fnever really liked the kind of trouble
CIt got me in along the Gway
So I got me a dog and I solved it all, Fnow me and him are makin? our own laws
There?s Csomething about living this kind of Gway
I had me a friend in Birmingham, got a Ftwenty year sentence from a one night stand
At Cleast he did the time for his Gson
WelGl I've done it more than once or twice Fand I made it through my darkest nights
You Cknow I'll always be livin' on the run
[Chorus] 
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou 
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou  
[Outro]
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou 
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou  
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou  
Makin? it Fthrough is what I Cdo to get over Gyou
