Lucinda Jones workin' at the IHOP:
G                                     D
Ten years worth of bacon, eggs an' tears
A               Em7
She's waited on every creed an' color,
       G                           A
While waitin' on this day to get here

[Pre-Chorus]
          Em
Graveyard shifts, two bit tips,
         A
Makin' every quarter count,
                Em7
Was worth it all to see her son,
        A
In that cap an' gown

[Chorus]
D
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
G
Lose your grip, trip an' fall
     G/B
When you can't lean on no-one else:
A
That's when you find yourself
G    D
I've been around and I've noticed that
   G
Walkin's easy when the road is flat
      G/B                                C
Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time
                Em                  A
Yeah the good Lord gave us mountains,

                        D      G  D
So we could learn how to climb

Private Bobby Dunn came back from the war
G                                         D  G D
Lost his leg but they couldn't take his will
A                Em7
Hell bent to run in that local marathon
G                                          A
He trained through the endless pain an' pills

[Pre-Chorus]
           Em
It hurt so bad that sometimes
A
He just had to cry
          Em7
He didn't stop until he crossed
        A
That finish line

[Chorus]
D
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
G
Lose your grip, trip an' fall

[Bridge]
A
This world ain't fair
         G
It can knock you on your butt
C                      G
You can just lie there
            A
Or you can get back up
                      D  G G/B A
You gotta get back up

[Chorus]
