Wayward Drifter
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Verse 1]
G D
Ya the wind it swept in through the trees like a train through this old town
Am C G
Now that everybodies gone that heartaches come a around.
D
Ya tonight the moon just will not shine.and I can't see the stars.
Am C G
I got nothing to think about except this broken heart.
[Verse 2]
G D Am
Well the one I love has gone away cause she could not be true. So I packed some things took off that ring,
C G D
and put on them walking shoes. I headed out the door like I done before but this time with a plan.
Am C G
I'm gonna pick some tunes by the light of the moon just a roaming round this land.
[Chorus]
G D Am
And I'll be that wayward drifter walking down the railroad tracks. Lord if I get gone I'm a ramblin' on
C G D
and I aint looking back. From the switch yard with this old guitar I'm a heading to your town.
Am C G
And I'll sing you a song play all night long but I can't stick around.
[Verse 3]
G D Am
Another town gone, another lonely song, another endless mile. Now I can always stay and change my ways but
C G D Am
that just aint my style. And you can tempt me with an eternity of love and gold sunshine. But In the end
C G
I'm my only friend and I'll tell you one more time.
[Chorus]
G D Am
That I'll be that wayward drifter walking down the railroad tracks. Lord if I get gone I'm a ramblin' on
C G D
and I aint looking back. From the switch yard with this old guitar I'm a heading to your town.
Am C G
And I'll sing you a song play all night long but I can't stick around.
[Verse 4]
G D Am
I guess I'll keep on walking and hoping on these old trains. Cause with my six string and without that ring
C G D Am
I aint got no complaints. And I'd love to spend another night with everyone of you. But I love the feel
C G
of a rumblin steel and I gotta push on through.
[Chorus]
G D Am
And I'll be that wayward drifter walking down the railroad tracks. Lord if I get gone I'm a ramblin' on
C G D
and I aint looking back. From the switch yard with this old guitar I'm a heading to your town.
Am C G
And I'll sing you a song play all night long but I can't stick around.
