DmBorn with a bullet in my blood,
F GDust in my teeth, and smoke in my lungs.
DmMama cried to a God that was blind,
F GI learned young that mercy’s hard to find.
 
DmLeather hands and broken bones,
F GStealin’ bread just to bring it home.
DmPreacher said I’d rot where I stood -
F G DmGuess he was right... but I never understood.
 
A#No cross, no crown,
CJust dirt draggin’ me down.
 
Dm FI was born for the dust,
C GFor the rust, for the broken roads.
Dm FI was carved by the dark,
C GBy the scars that the devil sold.
DmDust in my soul,
FAsh in my breath,
CBorn for the dust -
GTill there’s nothin’ left.
 
Cut my teeth on a bottle of shame,
Sold my soul just to dodge the rain.
Played my sins like a crooked hand,
And watched my heaven turn to sand.
 
No light, no sign,
Just whiskey and time.
 
I was born for the dust,
For the rust, for the broken roads.
I was carved by the dark,
By the scars that the devil sold.
Dust in my soul,
Ash in my breath,
Born for the dust -
Till there’s nothin’ left.
 
Some men ride for gold...
Some just ride to be forgot.
 
I was born for the dust,
For the rust, for the broken roads.
I was carved by the dark,
By the scars that the devil sold.
Dust in my soul,
Ash in my breath,
Born for the dust -
Till there’s nothin’ left.
 
...nothin’ left...
