I am sure that this is not completely correct, but it is close enough and since
there are no submissions for this song I felt compelled to post SOMETHING since
this is an incredible song that deserves to be played. Jamey Johnson holds to the
true outlaw traditions of the Highwaymen members during their origional careers -
definetely worth checking out! P.S. This is my virgin post so be kind!

I remember how it blew my mind
G A Dsus2
When I played my song and watched a grown man cry
G A Bm7
It was at that moment where I just knew
G A
What I was born to do
Dsus2 Dm
You see most songwriters never get the fame
