Ry Cooder

Standard OR Open G with Capo V (which is how Ry plays it on his Sunburst Stratocaster)

  C            F        C
How can you keep on moving unless you migrate too
   C               D           G7
 They tell ya to keep on moving but migrate, you must not do
   C               F      C
 The only reason for moving and the reason why I roam
  C        G            C
 To move to a new location and find myself a home

 C          F               C
I can't go back to the homestead, the shack no longer stands
          D             G7
 They said I was uneeded, had no claim to the land
   C          F                C
 They said, "Come on, get moving, it's the only thing for you"
   C        G             C
 But how can you keep moving unless you migrate too

 Slide guitar solo

Now if you pitch your little tent along the broad highway
   C             D        D
 The Board of Sanitation says, "Sorry, you can't stay"
   C        F               C
 Come on, come on, get moving it's their everlasting cry
    C             G               C
 Can't stay, can't go back, can't migrate, so where the hell am I

  C            F        C
How can you keep on moving unless you migrate too
   C               D           G7
 They tell ya to keep on moving but migrate, you must not do
   C        F              C
 The only reason for moving and the reason why I roam
  C        G            C
 To move to a new location and find myself a home
