Driftin' Way Of Life Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm singing [C]about the
drifting way of [G]life
Yes, different from the
many that I've [D]known
And every [C]day I'm bound to walk
a strange new [G]road[E]
By [A]myself or keep liv
[D]ing it right or [G]wrong
Now I've hitch[C]hiked about a
hundred thousand [G]miles
And I've had good [A]luck,
and I've lived in different [D]styles
Yeah, but all the folk[C]s,
no matter what place or [G]race
[E]Have tried to [A]put me
like a [D]free bird in a [G]cage
But I keep a [C]-singin' about the
driftin' way of [G]life
Because it's different from the
many that I've [D]known
And every [C]day I'm bound to walk
a strange new [G]road
By [E]myself, [A]living[D] right or wro[G]ng
And I've tied some [C]knots
with my friends I'd hate to [G]lose
I say we're friend[A]s
because we give the right to [D]choose
But things get [C]tight
when your friends get out of [G]place
[E]And try to [A]change your big hat
[D]or shape your fac[G]e
So I keep a [C]-singin' about
the driftin' way of [G]life
Yeah, it's different from the
many that I've [D]known
Yeah, and every [C]day I'm bound
to walk a strange new [G]road
By [E]myself, [A]livin'[D] right or wro[G]ng
[F][C][G][A]
[D][C][G][E][A][D]
[G]
Now in my [C]mind, you know
I thought of a settling [G]down
To stop my roam[A]ing,
forget this banging [D]around
But to live my [C]life among groups
every [G]day, every day
[E]Will either cha[A]nge me
or [D]send me down the [G]way
And as it [C]stands,
I'm never down and out too [G]long
Cause I can kiss the [A]blues goodbye
with every [D]song
And I'm livin' my [C]life
as it feels to me right now
[G]Walk on,[E] there's ain't
noth[A]in' in this world
[D]gonna hold me dow[G]n
As I keep [C]singin' about the
driftin' way of [G]life
Yeah, it's different from the
many that I've [D]known
Yeah, and every [C]day I'm bound to
walk a strange new [G]road[E][A]
I'll keep a [D]-livin' it right or [G]wrong
[E]Long gone by my[A]self, yeah
I'll keep a [D]-livin' it right or wrong
[G]
