Guitar chords with lyrics
- Difficulty: Beginner 👶
Intro: C Em I was born in the badlands, honey Am F Strange place for a boy to drown C Em Spent my days on a mountain, baby Am F Twelve miles north of Sofiatown F C G
Verse 1:
F C G
You’ve been gone away
I’ve been riding around
F C G
Running out the days, writing out a song
F
On my daddy’s guitar
F C G
Did you find your way? Skip another town?
Said I couldn’t stay but it’s different now
F C G
Yippee ki yi yay
I’m always down
For hanging around
Chorus:
C G
Left to borrow, gone tomorrow
Am F
Baby, there ain't a trail to follow
C Em Am F
Better off alone if you ask me
C G
Travel lucky
Kawasaki
Am F
Maybe, next time I'll take you with me
C Em Am F
And I still hear the sound
C Em Am F
The wind come up
Kalahari down
Kalahari down
Verse 2:
F C G
Polish in your whip, never drove it far
F C G
Circling the veld, spittin' in the jar
F
On your Daddy's farm
C G
You say you're afraid, tell me not to frown
Play a song, you dance around
F C G
Yippee yo ki yay, we'd hit the ground
Still tumbling down
Chorus:
C Em
What do I know? Buncha sorrow
Am F
Promises of a desperado
C Em
Through the rusty sky I feel the breeze
C Em
Where do we go? Mendocino?
Am F
Maybe some day I'll get to see all
C Em Am F
The places like Torino's never been
C Em Am F
And I still hear the sound
C Em Am F
Wind come up
Kalahari down
Kalahari down
Outro:
C Em
Left to roam on a reckless wander
Am F
Raising sand on the setting sun
C Em
Keep an eye on that dusty highway
Am
Tell my mother I'm nearly done
Harmonica:
And I still hear the sound
Wind come up
Kalahari down
Kalahari down Published:
