Chipping Mill

Ran my heart through a chippin' mill

Sold my soul for rock 'n' roll

Gave away all that I could steal

But I always kept the best for you

I always kept the best for you

Drank my way through a hurricane

Thinkin' 'bout your weddin' ring

I done a lot of real dumb things

But I always kept the best for you

I always kept the best for you

Well, I should've seen it a million miles away

We're stardust brought to life

None of us are meant to stay

One thing about it, I'll meet you at the gate

I always kept the best for you

I always kept the best for you

There's a moment when time stands still

Day breaks at the top of the hill

Backstrap from the mornin' kill

I always kept the best for you

I always kept the best for you

The lines get distorted, but the message is the same

We were howlin' at a ghost without a name

Despite what's reported, my love for you remains

I always kept the best for you

I always kept the best for you

Well, they ran my heart through the chippin' mill

Sold my soul for rock and roll

Gave away all that I could steal

I always kept the best for you
