[Verse one]
[G]A country kid, [C] a crowded ci[G]ty, [C] a [G]country kid f[C]eeling so al[G]one [C]
[G]Thinking if you w[C]ere just to d[G]isappear, [C] w[G]ould anyone, even k[D]now you’d g[G]one?

[Verse two]
[G]Couldn’t see you[C]rself, l[G]iving there [C] it [G]wasn’t like the pl[C]aces you’ve called h[G]ome [C]
[G]You defied,[C] convention[G]ality [C] your s[G]aw a chance and y[D]ou were g[G]one

[CHORUS]
[D]Swirling winds d[Em]irty streets you were fe[C]eling chilled to the b[G]one
P[D]retty obvious pr[Em]etty clear you’re be[C]tter off moving [G]on

[Verse three]
[G]Where was the light,[C] where was the oppor[G]tunity [C] e[G]veryone was t[C]alking ab[G]out [C]
[G]well if you’re f[C]ed with a si[G]lver spoon [C] you’ll be st[G]reets ahead, be[D]fore too so[G]on.

[Verse four]
[G]For most it’s wasted d[C]ays in some de[G]ad end job [C] making mo[G]ney for[C] someone e[G]lse [C]
[G]Using your body [C]and they’re [G]using your mind [C] a[G]ll for their gr[D]eedy sel[G]ves

[CHORUS]
[D]Swirling winds d[Em]irty streets you were fe[C]eling chilled to the b[G]one
P[D]retty obvious pr[Em]etty clear you’re be[C]tter off moving [G]on

[REFRAIN]
Do w[G]hat you can with w[D]hat you’ve got [Em]be who you want to [C]be
G[G]ive yourself ha[D]lf a chance to f[Em]ind your dest[C]iny
Wh[G]at other point is there to l[D]ife than this n[Em]one that I can [C]see
Do w[G]hat you can with w[D]hat you’ve got and [C]be who you want to [G]be

[Verse five]
[G]Our country kid[C] did pr[G]etty well [C] on a pat[G]h he mapped [C]out for himself ins[G]tead [C]
D[G]id the old folks proud[C] kept his di[G]gnity [C] and u[G]sed the power [D]in his he[G]ad.

[CHORUS]
[D]Swirling winds d[Em]irty streets you were fe[C]eling chilled to the b[G]one

Do w[G]hat you can with w[D]hat you’ve got [Em]be who you want to [C]be
G[G]ive yourself ha[D]lf a chance to f[Em]ind your dest[C]iny
Wh[G]at other point is there to l[D]ife than this n[Em]one that I can [C]see
Do w[G]hat you can with w[D]hat you’ve got and [C]be who you want to [G]be
