The Price You Pay (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You make up your mind, you choose the chance you take
You ride to where the highway ends and the desert breaks
Out on to an open road you ride until the day
You learn to sleep at night with the price you pay

Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies
And in one last breath they built the roads they’d ride to their death
Driving on through the night, unable to break away
From the restless pull of the price you pay

(chorus)
Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay
Now you can’t walk away from the price you pay

Now they’d come so far and they’d waited so long
Just to end up caught in a dream where everything goes wrong
Where the dark of night holds back the light of day
And you’ve gotta stand and fight for the price you pay

(chorus)

Little girl down on the strand
With that pretty little baby in your hands
Do you remember the story of the promised land
How he crossed the desert sands
And could not enter the chosen land
On the banks of the river he stayed
To face the price you pay

So let the games start, you better run you little wild heart
You can run through all the nights and all the days
But just across the county line, a stranger passing through put up a sign
That counts the men fallen away to the price you pay,
And girl before the end of the day,
I’m gonna tear it down and throw it away

You make up your mind, you choose the chance you take
You ride to where the highway ends and the desert breaks
Out on through an open road you ride until the day
You learn to sleep at night with the price you pay

Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies
And then with their last breath
They built the roads they would ride to their deaths
Driving on through the night unable to break away
>from the restless pull of the price you pay

Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay
Now you can’t walk away from the price you pay

Now they’ve come so far and they’ve waited so long
Just to end up caught in a dream where everything goes wrong
Where the dark of night holds back the light of the day
And you gotta stand and fight for the price you pay

Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay
Now you can’t walk away from the price you pay

Little girl down on the strand
With that pretty little baby in your hands
Do you remember the story of the promised land
How he crossed the desert sands
And could not enter the chosen land
On the banks of the river he stayed
To face the price you pay

So let the games start
You better run you little wild heart
You can run through all the nights and all the days
But just across the county line
A stranger passin’ through put up a sign
That counts so many fallen away
To the price you pay,

Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay
Now you can’t walk away from the price you pay

Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay
Now you can’t walk away from the price you pay

The Price You Pay (Letra)

There’s a small jail in georgia you all know,
Where the sun’s so hot and the daylight don’t show.
Where the moccasin she rests on a soft bed of sand,
You can hear the hound dog howling out the land.

Chorus:
It ain’t the way i wanted it.
But lord that’s the price you pay.

I said jailer bring me water for my throat is dry,
Four walls, steel bars, i’ve been watching passersby,
I’ve been sitting here so long i’m starting to cry,
The hangman’s coming, i’m surely going to die.

Chorus:
It ain’t the way i wanted it.
But lord that’s the price you pay.
Oh, honk on it, boy,
A little jail cell blues here.

Lead break

I shot a man in macon over a poker game,
I killed another in atlanta just to build my fame,
Well, now i hear the hammers they’re pounding out my name.

It ain’t the way i wanted it.
But that’s the price you pay.
It ain’t the way i wanted it.
But lord that’s the price you pay.

Hey jailer, how about that water my throat’s still dry,
Four walls, steel bars, i’ve been watching passersby,
I’ve been sitting here so damn long i’m starting to cry,
The hangman’s coming i’m surely going to die.

It ain’t the way i wanted it.
But lord that’s the price you pay,
(repeat),
It ain’t the way i wanted it,
But lord that’s the price you pay.
Oh, you done out of rope son.
