Intro: C9, Em, D, D 

Verse:
        
      C9    Em,           
That same road that brought you here 
D,            D 
Will sure as hell take you home 
        C9          Em,            Dsus 
The life you left behind will have you back 
       C9            Em,            D 
You're tired of paying dues in worn out shoes 
       D 
and Broadway blues 
               C9  Em,      Dsus 
And any fool will tell you the damn ol' deck is stacked 

Pre-Chorus 

C9 
What if you're just a vessel 
Em 
And God gave you something special 

Chorus 
C9            Em     D 
It ain't yours to throw away 
C9             Em     D 
It ain't yours to throw away 
C9          Em 
Every time you open up your mouth 
A     Em      G 
Diamonds come rolling out 
           C9 Em    D 
It ain't yours to throw away 

      Em       C9 
No ... 

And all of the players, the movers, and shakers 
The story maker suits have gone home 
You drew the last slot 
You thought it was your shot 
But now it's just one more chance blown 
What if you're just a vessel 
And God gave you something special 

It ain't yours to throw away 
It ain't yours to throw away 
Every time you open up your mouth 
Diamonds come rolling out 
It ain't yours to throw away 
No ... 

Em 
And our town is cold as January 
A                              C9 
Life comes true, and dreams get buried every day ... 
Em                 Dsus C9 
Destiny won't be denied 

It ain't yours to throw away 
No, it ain't yours to throw away 
'Cause every time you open up your mouth 
Diamonds come rolling out 

It ain't yours to throw away 
It ain't yours to throw away ... 
Throw away
