[Verse 1]
[G]Father, let us build [Em]a boat
and sail [Bm]away
There's [Em]nothing for [G]you
[Dsus4]here[G]
And brother, [Dm]let us throw
our lot [Em]out upon t[Bm]he sea
[G]It's been done before

[Verse 2]
[Dsus4]I'm think[C]ing[G]
'bout a broken [C]heart
I'm [G]talking 'bout the break [C]of dawn
You [G]love me while i'm here
[C]Then you can miss m[G]e
when i'm [C]gone
[G]Sweet misunderstand[C]ing
Won't you [G]leave a poor boy [C]alone
I'm the [G]one eyed seed of a [C]tumbleweed
In the [G]belly of a [F]rolling stone

I [G]had a little woman in mem[C]phis
She [G]wanted to be my [C]bride
She said, [G]settle on down,
travel[C]ing man
You can stay [G]right by my [C]side
I [G]tried so hard [C]to please her
But i [G]couldn't hold out too [C]long
'cause one [G]saturday night
i [C]was laying in bed
And i [G]heard that high[F]way song

[Verse 6]
Now [G]one of these days that high[C]way
song will [G]lose its appeal [C]to me
I'm gonna [G]settle on down like a
[C]natural born man
I'm gonna [G]live my life natur
[C]ally (free and [G]easy)
Until that day the [C]thunder's gonna roll
And i [G]no tice there's a sign of [C]rain
So i grab [G]my bags and i [C]pack my clothes
And i'm [G]back on the [F]road again
