G                                        C 
One hopeful road that my Mamma showed to me 
         G 
From the moment I first standed I didn't know 
                                    C 
Back there and then she released me free 
          G 
From that patched up shackle down my Pa was handed 
                                               C 
She said Tyrone go be the King you're meant to be 
       G 
Like a stone roll on your mission hurry now son 
                           C 
There are songs need to be sung 
               G 
And you're the one to which the heart it is releasin

G                      C          G 
Mother said run Baby run run like the river

G                                                 C 
As wheels do turn is how I go you all sure should know 
             G 
As flames do burn I am ignited towards the wind 
                           C 
With squinted eyes I look ahead 
          G 
Cos in the end they're all behind me long been ridin
