By: Tom Paxton Nanci Griffith, Johnny Cash Key: C 5 -5 6 6 6 -6 6 It's a long and dust-y road 6 6 -5 -5 -5 5 5 -4 It's a hot and a heav-y load -6 -6 6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 And the folks I meet ain't al-ways kind 5 -5 6 6 6 -6 6 Some are bad and some are good 6 6 -5 -5 5 5 -4 Some have done the best they could -6 -6 6 6 -5 -5 5 5 -4 4 Some have tried to ease my trou-bl-in� mind (chorus) 5 6 -5 -5 -5 5 5 -4 -4 4 And I can't help but won-der where I'm bound -3 -3 -3� Where I'm bound 5 5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 -4 -4 4 And I can't help but won-der where I'm bound I've been wandering through this land Just doin' the best I can Tryin' to find what I was meant to do And the people that I see Look as worried as can be And it looks like they are wanderin', too (repeat chorus) And I had me a buddy back home But he started out to roam And I hear he's out by Frisco Bay And, sometimes, when I've had a few His old voice comes ringin' through And I'm goin' out to see him some old day If you see me passin' by And you sit and you wonder why And you wish that you were a rambler, too Just nail your shoes to the kitchen floor Lace 'em up and bar the door Thank your stars for the roof that's over you |
