TRAVELING ALONE (Ron Sexsmith)
Album "Exit Strategy of the Soul" (2008)
[Intro]
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G (x2)
[Verse 1]
D A/C# Bm G
With my free hand I'll flag it down this oncoming day
D A/C# Bm G
I'll hitch a ride far from this town and be on my way
A Em F#m G
In this world of beginners singled out their faces unknown
A Em F#m G
These saints and these sinners agendas of their own
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
All traveling alone
[Verse 2]
D A/C# Bm G
From the dreams at hand there's no divorce in sickness and in health
D A/C# Bm G
It's a fever that must run its course before you are well
A Em F#m G
For worse or for better whichever way the wind may blow
A Em F#m G
We're in this together with hang ups of our own
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
We're traveling alone
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
Traveling alone
[Bridge]
A Em F#m G
For worse or for better we've set out on that road
[Verse 3]
D A/C# Bm G
Oh, it's one on one you and your soul and nobody else
D A/C# Bm G
Just look around this train is full of folks who keep to themselves
A Em F#m G
These faces in windows heading out for places unknown
A Em F#m G
Though lives intermingle our thoughts are left to roam
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
All traveling alone
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
Traveling alone
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
Traveling alone
[Outro]
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G D
