Travelling Man by The Original Rudeboys





                           Travelling Man






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

CHORUS

(0.15 - 0.34)
                      Em
Cause I™m a travelling man,

         C
Where i lay my hats my home

       D
Don™t know where i am going

          Am
But Imma get there on my own..

             Em
A travelling man,

        C
Where i lay my hats my home

       D
Don™t know where i am going

           Am
But Imma™ get there on my own



SINGING VERSE

(0.35 - 1.15)

                 Em
Its just another venue


another live show, a different city with places to go

                                 C
Imma keep on doing this, til the day that I die

        Em
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

         Em
Feel the pressure to succeed, 


I wasn't going anywhere til music found me

                             C
Never gonna turn green, with envy and greed

       Em
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)

                      Em
Cause I™m a travelling man,

         C
Where i lay my hats my home

       D
Don™t know where i am going

         Am
But Imma get there on my own..

             Em
A travelling man,

        C
Where i lay my hats my home

       D
Don™t know where i am going

         Am
But Imma get there on my own..




RAP VERSE

(1.36 - 2.15)

                              Em
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
We didn't wanna be another band lazing in bars

               Em
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
Hasn't been since last march that we paid for some beers

        Em
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
giving it all on the stage until we're ready to drop

        Em
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)

                      Em
Cause I™m a travelling man,

         C
Where i lay my hats my home

       D
Don™t know where i am going

          Am
But Imma get there on my own

             Em
A travelling man,

        C
Where i lay my hats my home

       D
Don™t know where i am going

           Am
But Imma get there on my own



INTERLUDE
