[Verse 1] You came through the doorway with a suitcase and a plan Said you were done waiting on a half-made man I watched your taillights vanish past the county line Then found your note beneath the porch light: “You’ll be fine” [Pre-Chorus] I had a pocket full of promises And every one had worn thin Sometimes losing what you hold too tight Is where the road begins [Chorus] I’m gonna walk that hard road smiling Let the old hurt lose its name Every mile keeps on reminding me I’m not the man I was yesterday If the wind turns cold behind me I’ll keep moving just the same I’m gonna walk that hard road smiling Till the morning knows my name [Verse 2] My brother called from Memphis, said the family’s doing well Mama keeps your picture by the old church bell He said, “You’ve got a way of making storms out of the blue” I said, “Maybe I was scared to find out what was true” [Pre-Chorus] Now the truth is on the table And it doesn’t need a disguise There’s a little more room inside my chest Since I stopped defending lies [Chorus] I’m gonna walk that hard road smiling Let the old hurt lose its name Every mile keeps on reminding me I’m not the man I was yesterday If the wind turns cold behind me I’ll keep moving just the same I’m gonna walk that hard road smiling Till the morning knows my name [Bridge] I’ve got a photograph with a corner bent A map of every place my courage went The past can knock, but I won’t let it stay I’ve got work to do at the break of day [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] I’m gonna walk that hard road smiling Let the old hurt lose its name Every mile keeps on reminding me I’m not the man I was yesterday If the wind turns cold behind me I’ll keep moving just the same I’m gonna walk that hard road smiling Till the morning knows my name [Outro] Yeah, I’ll walk it till the morning knows my name No looking back, no looking back again
