Key: G Tuning: E A D G B E Verse: D G D While driving around near a small country town D A Pulled off where the grass had been mowed D G D I sipped on my drink and while pausing to think D A D Saw a man on the side of the road. D G D Like a dog on the stray, he could wander all day D A With no one around him to care. D G D He didn't seem cross and he didn't seem lost D A Wherever he was, he was there.
Chorus: G D The man on the side of the road D A Silently shouldering his load. D G D Untouched by the strife on the highway of life G C D The man on the side of the road. BREAK Verse: D G D He sat on the ground with his treasures he had found D A And spread them all out on the grass. D G D He had not a care for the laughs and the stares D A D From the pickups and cars that drove past. D G D He had found an old sign that was weathered with time D. A Jesus is coming it said. D G D He really didn't need it, I don't think he could read it D A D But the letters were pretty in red. Chorus: G D The man on the side of the road D A Silently shouldering his load. D G D And I think in a way I could live out my days D A D Like the man on the side of the road.
