Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: C

[INTRO]
 
C
 
[VERSE 1]
 
C
I got a friend named Ramblin' Jack.
C
He's got a face like a tumbled down shack
                                          G
That's been lived in too long to be torn down. 
      G
He's high on life and low on luck 
     G
and big on driving diesel trucks
                                           C
And knows the boys that built them by the sound
 
[VERSE 2]
 
 C
Most of his lifetime he's been wasted
C
On the wine of life he's tasted
                                     F
And I guess the rest, Lord, he was stoned
          G
And he's known to lay his weary head
         G
In some funky, unfamiliar beds
                               C
But he was only looking for a home
 
[CHORUS]
 
        F                                 C
And I know he ain't afraid of where he's going
         G                                   C
And I'm sure he ain't ashamed of where he's been
        F
He has paid a little piece of his soul 
           C
For every seed that he's been sowing
          D                                     G
And he's made his own mistakes, and love, and friends
N.C.                            C
Ain't that what matters in the end
 
[INTERLUDE]

[VERSE 3]
 
 D
Soulful songs and sailing ships
D
Put a smile upon his lips
                             A
Easy as the laughter in his eyes
    A
And if he knew how good he'd done 
A
every song he ever sung
                             D
I believe he'd truly be surprised
 
[VERSE 4]
 
 D
Looking back he's come so far
 D
Looking at his lucky star
                                      G
Somewhere, out there, rocking on the road
 A
Risky nights and wasted days
 A
Wild and righteous, wicked ways
                            D
Mixing up the music in his soul
 
[CHORUS]
 
        G                                 D
And I know he ain't afraid of where he's going
         A                                   D
And I'm sure he ain't ashamed of where he's been
        G
He has paid a little piece of his soul 
           D
For every seed that he's been sowing
          E                                     A
And he's made his own mistakes, and love, and friends
N.C.                            D
Ain't that what matters in the end
