Lyrics
Intro
Oh oh
Mmm
Oh oh
Chorus
They wanted to change a man
Pull his heart through the sand
Break him down until he turned
Would you believe it now
Just to see if they could
How they tried to make a good man bad
Verse 1
White lines on a red map
A restless soul looking for the trap
He held his ground through the biting cold
Stood tall while his friends were bought and sold
Pre-Chorus
They wanted more than money
They wanted more than control
Searching for a crack inside his soul
Chorus
They wanted to change a man
Pull his heart through the sand
Break him down until he turned
Would you believe it now
Just to see if they could
How they tried to make a good man bad
Post-Chorus
Ooh let it go
Ooh watch him go
Ooh see him go
Verse 2
Tearing down the high fence
Nothing really makes sense
Whiskey burned and the sun turned black
Still he never let his shoulder crack
Pre-Chorus
They wanted more than money
They wanted more than control
Searching for a crack inside his soul
Chorus
They wanted to change a man
Pull his heart through the sand
Break him down until he turned
Would you believe it now
Just to see if they could
How they tried to make a good man bad
Post-Chorus
Ooh let it go
Ooh watch him go
Ooh see him go
Bridge
He wouldn't bow
He wouldn't break
He wouldn't fall for the fake
Iron will and a spirit that stayed dry
Underneath that vast and lonesome sky
Guitar Solo
Chorus
They wanted to change a man
Pull his heart through the sand
Break him down until he turned
Would you believe it now
Just to see if they could
How they tried to make a good man bad
Chorus
They wanted to change a man
Pull his heart through the sand
Break him down until he turned
Would you believe it now
Just to see if they could
How they tried to make a good man bad
Post-Chorus
Ooh let it go
Ooh watch him go
Ooh see him go
How they tried to make a good man bad
Oh how they tried to make a good
