This song isn't really a guitar song, its heavy on bass and ukulele but I found a basic chord
structure for the song and also the lick that is played throughout the song during the:
Intro
Verse
Chorus
The only time the lick isn't used is during the Interlude.
Tuning: Standard

SINGING VERSE
(0.35 - 1.15)
E minorEm
Its just another venue
another live show, a different city with places to go
C majorC
Imma keep on doing this, til the day that I die
E minorEm
In this life, that doesn't slow down
We all get lost just waiting to be found
Imma keep my head held, high to the sky
E minorEm
Feel the pressure to succeed,
I wasn't going anywhere til music found me
C majorC
Never gonna turn green, with envy and greed
E minorEm
I'm an old man, the rules are there to be written
Sometimes they push me down sometimes I feel like quitting,
but I'm never gonna give this up, cause this is my life
CHORUS
(1.16 - 1.35)

RAP VERSE
(1.36 - 2.15)
E minorEm
Well we've been chewed up and spit out
They say we?re doing something new now
Everybody wants to hear this travelling bands tunes out
From day one we were chasing the stars
C majorC
We didn't wanna be another band lazing in bars
E minorEm
We?re gazing at charts, hoping one day to be a part of it
Made a ton of progress we've only started yeah
We'd mad melodies, jamming on chairs
C majorC
Hasn't been since last march that we paid for some beers
E minorEm
Forward moving failures, ah sure were not choosing
Find us on the road at live shows or lay boozing
Straight cruising were ready to rock
C majorC
giving it all on the stage until we're ready to drop
E minorEm
n these labels said we were just too different
Dublin hip hop would never work there's something missing n
the accent is too deep its too strong, but now most of them are singing along
Chorus
(2.15 - 2.35)

Cause I?m a travelling man,
