[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I've invariably found
that feet kept on the [C]ground,
allow the grass to grow.
[G]Oh, this is rather splendid
once you get the hang of it.
Check your mirrors front and rear,
slip smoothly into [C]gear,
then hit the road and [G]go.
Feel the piston's steady beat,
the camshaft neath your [C]feet,
that big end start to [G]flood.
May I advise a modicum of cau[D]tion, [G]sir?
He who hesitates is lost,
and [C]bridges, [G]once they're cro[C]ssed,
don't stop to say goodbye.
[G]There is a blind corner approaching,
[C]My [D]philosophy's to
[Bm]travel hope[Em]fully
and [Am]making each [D]day that I sur[G]vive
[C]An opportun[D]ity to [Bm]share the [Em]com pany
that [Am]welcomes me when I [Bm]ar rive
[D]Hark![G]
The missile thrushes cry,
the hedgerows rushing [C]by,
the curlew on the [G]wing
that is a crow's eye.
List!
Some distant church's bells,
midst bracing country's [C]smells,
those fields of golden [G]-thing corn -sun.
[C]My philo[D]sophy's to
[Bm]travel hope[Em]fully
and [Am]making each [D]day that I sur[G]vive
[C]An opportun[D]ity to share
[Bm]the comp[Em]any
that [Am]welcomes me when I [Bm]ar r[D]ive
[G]Travel's broadened out my mind
until today you'll [C]find
The widest head I [G]know.
Thank you, you did say wisest,
didn't you?
Every traveller I meet
I'll always stop to [C]greet.
Be careful how you [G]go, [C]sir.
[D]My philosophy's to
[Bm]travel hope[Em]fully
And [Am]making each [D]day that I sur[G]vive
An [C]opportunity [D]to sha[Bm]re
[D]the[Bm] comp[Em]any
that [Am]welcomes me when I [Bm]ar rive.
[D]Tra[Bm]vel h[D]op[Ab]efully with me,
and I will guarantee [C#]there'll
be no pause [Ab]for doubt.
Hey, it's the nearest [Ab]country track,
no time for looking [C#]back,
look onwards and look out!
