Dar Williams - Traveling Again (Traveling I)
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: FF G+G C majorC FF G+G FF
N.C. FF G+G C majorC
Have I got everything? A minorAm I ready to go?
FF G+G
Is it gonna be wild, is it gonna be the best time?
A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
Or am I just saying so-o-o-o? A minorAm I ready to go?
FF G+G C majorC
What do I hear when I say I hear the call of the road?
N.C. A minorAm
I think it started with driving
FF G+G A minorAm G+G
More speed, more deals, more sky, more wheels
A minorAm FF G+G
More things to leave behind
C majorC
Now it's all in a day for the modern mind
FF G+G C majorC
And I am traveling again
FF G+G A minorAm
Calling this a ghost town and where is the heartland?
FF G+G A minorAm
And I'm afraid, oh, was there any good reason
FF G+G A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
That I had to go, when all I know is, I can never come back, yeah, yeah
FF G+G C majorC
Traveling, I made a friend, he had a trouble in his head
FF G+G
And all he could say, that he knew that the bottle
A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
Drank the woman from his bed, from his bed
FF G+G C majorC
He said, "I'm not gonna lose that way again"
A minorAm
But sober is just like driving
FF G+G A minorAm G+G
More joy, more dread, someone turns her head
A minorAm FF G+G
And smiles and disappears
C majorC
He's gotta take it like it is and it goes too fast
FF G+G FF G+G A minorAm
And he is just like me, caught in-between, no sage advisor
FF
Does weary mean wiser?
DmDm A minorAm FF
And someday, will I sing the mountains that carried me away
DmDm G+G
Away from home and hometown boys like you
FF G+G C majorC
Yeah, what about us? Was it really that bad?
FF G+G
Oh, its hard to believe I want a highway road-stop
A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
More than all the times we had on little dirt roads
FF G+G C majorC
What am I reaching for, that's better than a hand to hold?
N.C. A minorAm
It really was about driving
FF G+G A minorAm G+G
Not fame, not wealth, not driving away from myself
A minorAm FF G+G
It's just myself drove away from me
C majorC
And now I gotta get it back and it goes so fast
FF G+G C majorC
So I am traveling again
FF G+G A minorAm
Sitting at the All-Night, picking up a pen
FF G+G A minorAm
And I'm afraid, oh, was there any good reason
FF G+G A minorAm FF C majorC
That I had to go, when all I know is, I am all alone again
FF G+G A minorAm
You are the ghost town, and I am the heartland
FF G+G A minorAm
And I can say, oh, that's a very good reason that I had to go
FF G+G A minorAm FF G+G
But now all I know, is I can never come back, yeah, yeah
C majorC FF G+G C majorC F-C
And I will never go back
