recorded by Emmylou Harris
written by Bruce Springsteen
C F
You make up your mind you choose the chance you take
C G7
You ride to where the highway ends and the desert breaks
C F
Out on to an open road you ride until the day
C G7 C
You learn to sleep at night with the price you pay
F
Now with their hands held high they reached out for the open skies
C
And then with their last breath they built the roads
G7
They would ride to their deaths
C F
Driving on through the night unable to break away
C G7 F
From the restless pull of the price you pay
C F
Oh the price you pay oh the price you pay
C G7 C
Now you can't walk away from the price you pay
F
Now they'd come so far and they'd waited so long
C G7
Just to end up caught in a dream where everything goes wrong
C F
Where the dark of night holds back the light of the day
C G7 F
And you've gotta stand and fight for the price you pay
Repeat #3
C
Little girl down on the strand
F
With that pretty little baby in your hands
C G7
Do you remember the story of the promised land
C
How he crossed the desert sands
F
And could not enter the chosen land
C
On the banks of the river he stayed
G7 C
To face the price you pay
C F
So let the games start you better run you little wild heart
C G7
You can run through all the nights and all the days
C
But just across the county line
F
A stranger passing through put up a sign
C G7 F
That counts so many fallen away to the price you pay
C F
Oh the price you pay oh the price you pay
C G7 F
Now you can't walk away from the price you pay
C F
Oh the price you pay oh the price you pay
C G7 F C
Now you can't walk away from the price you pay
