This is a great song by Trader Horne and I had to transcribe it for you all I do not own
any writes to the song once again because of the obscurity of the music I typed the
lyrics myself and the chords too but I didn't write the song. I couldn't figure out the
intro bit, sorry guys but it's pretty much complete. I tried to line this up as best I could.
Em B Em B
Easy to you my traveller coming home to me
G D G D B
Oh I am a weary man yes I think it's me
Em B Em B
Paint for me a picture of the city in your way
G D C D Em
You will not see no colors but a million shades of grey
Em B Em B
Where did you go to what did you feel
G D Am C D B
I felt a city burn away the flames I did not see
Em B Em B
Did you make good friends in your city hold
G D C D Em
No money buys you friendship and so I lived alone

Did you meet a famous man or woman in the street

Em B Em B
Tell me my traveller what words did he speak
G D C G Em
He spat them words like fire and told them they were free
Em B G Em B
What did you say or hear what did you see
G D C D A B
Someone sang a song and people laughed and I could not believe
Em B Em B
Tell me my traveller what did you learn

That wisdom lies in truth itself and sorrow hides in scorn
