May The Road Rise chords by Roger Mcguinn

C           D                G                  Em
Summertime the sun would shine we'd lay across the field
  C                           D
Sheltered in the shadow of a tree
   C           D                G                  Em
We'd write our poems to take along And sing out on the road
  C                                    D
And you would always sing this song to me
          C           D
May the road rise to meet you
          G               Em
May the wind be at your back
        C          D               G
May the sun shine warm upon your land
          C               D
May the rain fall soft upon your face
    G          Em
Until we meet again
    C                   D            G
May God hold you in the palm of his hand

   C           D                G                  Em
Autumn leaves that change our tree To colours on the ground
  C                           D
Swirling patterns beautiful to see
   C           D                G                  Em
I'd lay my head down on your lap I wouldn't make a sound
  C                                    D
And you would always sing this song to me
          C           D
May the road rise to meet you
          G               Em
May the wind be at your back
        C          D               G
May the sun shine warm upon your land
          C               D
May the rain fall soft upon your face
    G          Em
Until we meet again
    C                   D            G
May God hold you in the palm of his hand

   C           D                G                  Em
Through the winter days our tree would shiver in the wind
  C                                    D
Waiting for the warming touch of spring
   C           D                G                  Em
I'd hold you in the firelight We'd stare into the flames
  C                                    D
And this is what you always used to sing
          C           D
May the road rise to meet you
          G               Em
May the wind be at your back
        C          D               G
May the sun shine warm upon your land
          C               D
May the rain fall soft upon your face
    G          Em
Until we meet again
    C                   D            G
And may God hold you in the palm of his hand
  C                                    D
And may the rain fall soft upon your face
    G          Em
Until we meet again
    C                   D            G
And may God hold you in the palm of his hand
