In the shade of an old oak tree,
G+G B minorBm D MajorD
I had the selfish idea to go back to sleep.
G+G B minorBm D MajorD
But I fought every urge and I sat still
A augmentedA A augmentedA
And hoped to be free.
VERSE:
A augmentedA G+G B minorBm D MajorD
All the lies that I tell - they come back to me.
G+G B minorBm D MajorD
In a wake of regret that could sober me.
G+G B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA A augmentedA
And redemption it came with the sun and the summer breeze.
CHORUS:
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm
Oh, I'd like to be out on the road,
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm
With my guitar and one change of clothes.
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
And I'd like to be whole.

Last night I thought of calling you.
G+G B minorBm D MajorD

G+G B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA
That brought me back to those times in Lacey's room.
CHORUS:
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm
Oh, I'd like to be out on the road,
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm
With my guitar and one change of clothes.
G+G A augmentedA
And I'd like to be
BREAK:
G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
Somewhere my thoughts can breathe,
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
And troubles don't follow me.
G+G B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
The heavy ship goes down with the sea,
B minorBm G+G A augmentedA
bBut my load is light and free.
