The Road by Levellers



                     The Road 





Capo: 3rd fret
 
Bm
Well its headlights, and white lights, and Black Tar Rivers
Em                  G          D              Em
They're dragging me around this country as it withers
Bm
The billboards, signposts, standing in the way
Em                  G          D              Em
Tell of the state of the nations, that we find today
 
       G           D           C
And we play and we play and we play
       G           D           C
To every day, every day, every day
      G
Every day
 
Bm
And in the front rooms of old towns far from the city
Em                  G          D              Em
With beaten up guitars and hearts full of pity
Bm
The people gather round singing songs from everywhere
Em                  G          D              Em
They're torn from the nation, left without a care
 
       G           D           C
And we play and we play and we play
       G           D           C
To every day, every day, every day
      G
Every day
 
          Em             D           Em          G
And we'll rid the bloody world for a moment in a word
          Em             D
And we'll rid the bloody world cos
    C                                  G
The words that you heard when you were young will always stay
    D                               C
The one's that always stay make the world go away
    C                                  G
The words that you heard when you were young will always stay
    D                               C
The one's that always stay make the world go away
    G
Go away
 
Bm
Warm night, clear sky, European town
Em                  G          D              Em
Outside the bars singing their hearts out to a crowd
Bm
With open boots, violin, banjo and a voice
Em                  G          D              Em
The exiled buskers are happy with their choice
