Capo 5

G C/G
I was born to ignorance yes and lesser poverties
G D
I was born to privelige that I did not see
Em Am C
Lack of pigment in my skin, won a free and easy in
G D C/G G
Didn't know it but my way was paved

I grew up a catholic boy in a northeastern state
A place when asked, "Where you from?"
Some people tend to hesitate, reply a little bit late
As if maybe you didn't rate
I was born to ignorance and privilege

My dad ran a printing press in a tag and label factory
May have seen it as a child, now a distant memory
Almost too faint to see, dark red brick factory
Didn't know it but my way was paved

We moved from a city street shortly after I arrived
To a house on a gravel road where I learned to be alive
Crawl, walk, run and ride, that's where I learned to come alive
Didn't know it but my way was paved

C/G D/A G
If the wind is at your back
C/G D/A G
And you never turn around
C/G D/A G F# Em
You may never know the wind is there
Am7 D/A
You may never hear the sound

Got to grow and go to school, work at home and dream at night
Even be a college fool, like I had any right
Never went through a war, never Great Depression poor
Didn't know it but my way was paved

Am D/A
Nose to the grindstone, shoulder to the wheel
Am D/A
Back against the wall, maybe you know how it feels


[solo over verse chords G C/G G D Em Am C G D C/G G]

If the wind is at your back
And you never turn around
You may never know the wind is there
You may never hear the sound

I was born to ignorance yes and lesser poverties
I was born to privelige that I did not see
Lack of pigment in my skin won a free and easy in
Didn't know it but my way was paved

Am D/A C/G G
'cause I was born to ignorance and privilege
