Carbon Leaf - Two Aging Truckers

      [Intro]
D D D G D D D A

[Verse 1]
D                                      G
A horse needs to run, a heart needs to bleed
   D                                        A
An engine can't gain the miles if it's kept pristine
D                                                      G
If the view of change is constant, just like I've been told
D                                               A        D
Is any back yard the boundless starts to all directions unknown


[Chorus]
D         
Will I be there?
D         D/F#
Will I be there?
D            G                  D     A     D 
When all the stories fade, when I am out of breath?
G           Bm              A                                               G  
My yoke is, your yoke is... restin' on our shoulders and we share the weary load
G          Bm           A
My yoke is, your yoke
A                                           G
We're just like two aging truckers down the road
G    Bm
Ah
Bm   A
Ah

[Verse 2]
D                                         G
Children of our parents, a storybook held close
D                                                   A
A mom and dad's heart-felt work is work down to the bone
D                                                      G
And the leveraging meant everything, so a palace for a home
    D                                      A     D
The remains of the day - were never shown, never known

[Chorus]
D         
Will I be there?
D         D/F#
Will I be there?
D            G                  D     A     D 
When all the stories fade, when I am out of breath?
G           Bm              A                                               G  
My yoke is, your yoke is... restin' on our shoulders and we share the weary load
G          Bm           A
My yoke is, your yoke
A                                           G
We're just like two aging truckers down the road
G    Bm
Ah
Bm   A
Ah
A                           G
Two aging truckers down the road
G    Bm

[Verse 3]
D                                         G
We now work in reverse, we salvage and we save
D                                            A
We fight the rust, one if by land, two if by grace
D                                                G
Sure as the spring will hail the greenest in all things
D                                                   A    D
Let the freshest of our love set sail and float the open breeze

[Final Chorus]
D         
Will I be there?
D         
Will I be there?
D            G                  D           A
When all the stories fade, when I am out of breath?
D         
Will I be there?
          A
Will I be there?
G                     A
When all the stories, ohh....
G           Bm              A                                               G  
My yoke is, your yoke is... restin' on our shoulders and we share the weary load
G          Bm           A
My yoke is, your yoke
A                                           G
We're just like two aging truckers down the road
G    Bm
