Verse 1
(G major) I can feel your arms around
me like (B flat major) it was yesterday
(B flat minor) I can feel (F major) your breathing next to me
and hear your laughter gay (G major)
You tried to tell me what was right
and I told you what was real
(F major) All I ever live for now is this piece
of wood and steel (G major)
(A flat minor)
Verse 2
In a world that's full of trouble
a world that's full of pain (B minor)
Lord (F sharp major) many fall beside the road
and they never rise again (G sharp minor)
Many more are bending low
or broken at the wheel
(F sharp major) All I need to carry on is this piece
of wood and steel (G sharp minor)
(A minor)

Verse 3
I was born my mother's (A major) only son
she loves me (A minor) all she can (C minor)
But there (G major) isn't much to say to her
since I became a man (A minor)
And I often met the devil but
I never made a deal (A major)
I just (G major) thank the Lord for hands to play (D major)
this (G major) piece of wood and (A minor) steel
(A sharp minor)
Verse 4
Its (B flat major) face is scarred and beaten
(B flat minor) like the ragged clothes I (D flat major) wear
Like the body (A flat major) that God gave me
I might give it better care (B flat minor)
But I play it for the ladies
and I play it for a meal
I (A flat major) play the strings just to hear 'em ring
of this piece of wood and steel (B flat minor)
(B minor)
Verse 5
I'm growing tired of searching now
there's something much I (D major) crave
(A major) Give or take a little time and you can
write it on my grave (B minor)
There's nothing more I care
to own nothing left to feel
(A major) All I ever wanted was this piece
of wood and (B minor) steel

I can feel (B flat major) your breathing next to me
and hear your laughter gay (C minor)
You tried to tell me what was right
and I told you what was real
(B flat major) All I ever live for now is this
piece of wood and (C minor) steel
In a world that's full of trouble
a world that's full of pain
Lord (B flat major) many fall beside the road
and they never rise again (C minor)
Many more are bending low
or broken at the wheel
(B flat major) All I need to carry on is this
