(Verse 1)
I've been (Bm)good-time drunk
Enough to be (G)bad-time sober
Broke a (D)map dot's heart when it disappeared o-(A)ver my shoulder
I've been (Bm)head strong right and dead end wrong
(G)Good with God, but I dropped the ball
Spend my (D)whole life holding on
But (A)even when I fell off

(Chorus)
The ride was worth the (Bm)fall
The fall was worth the (G)smiles
The smiles were worth the (D)tears
The tears were worth the (A)miles
Miles were worth the (Bm)pain
Pain was worth it (G)all
It's all worth this (D)life
The life is worth the (A)ride
The ride is worth the (Bm)fall (G) (A)

(Verse 2)
Had some �g(Bm)nowhere near it"s
And some �g(G)almost was"s
Left some (D)mommas in tears
And some (A)daddy's still cussin'
'Cause what I (Bm)should done and what could been
Even (G)knowin' now what I didn't know
Then (D) I'd climb back (A)on again

(Chorus)
The ride was worth the (Bm)fall
The fall was worth the (G)smiles
The smiles were worth the (D)tears
The tears were worth the (A)miles
Miles were worth the (Bm)pain
Pain was worth it (G)all
It's all worth this (D)life
The life is worth the (A)ride
The ride is worth the (Bm)fall
