A Aadd9 A Asus Fm E x2
A Dmaj7
Watch my back and light my way
F#m E A
My traveling star, my traveling star
A Dmaj7
Watch over all of those born St. Christopher's Day
F#m E A
Old road dog, young runaway
A Asus4 Dmaj7
They hunger for home but they cannot stay
Dm
They wait by the door
F#m
They stand and they stare
Dmaj7
They're already out of there
F#m E A
They're already out of there
A Dmaj7
My daddy used to ride the rails
F#m E A
So they say, so they say
A Dmaj7
Soft as smoke and as tough as nails
F#m E A
Boxcar Jones, old walking man
A Asus4 Dmaj7
Coming back home was like going to jail
Dm F#m
The sheets and the blankets and babies and all
Dmaj7
No he never did come back home
F#m E A
Never that I recall
Aadd9 E Aadd9
Nevermind the wind
E Aadd9
Nevermind the rain
E Aadd9
Nevermind the road
E Aadd9
leading home again
F#m E Aadd9
Never asking why
E F#m
Never knowing when
E F#m
Every now and then
E A
There he goes again
A Dmaj7
She had a cat and a dog named Blue
F#m E A
My traveling star, my traveling star
Dmaj7
A big old stove and a fireplace, too
F#m E A
Old road dog, young runaway
Asus4 Dmaj7
She told me she loved me like it was true
Dm
I knew I should stay
F#m
I knew I would go
Dmaj7
Run run run away
F#m E A
Run run run away, boy
Aadd9 E Aadd9
Run before the wind
E Aadd9
Run before the rain
E Aadd9
Over yonder hill
E Aadd9
Just around the bend
F#m E F#m
Never knowing why
E F#m
Never knowing when
E F#m
Every now and then
E A
There you go again
A Dmaj7
Tie me up and hold me down
F#m E A
Oh, my traveling star
Dmaj7
Bury my feet down in the ground
F#m E A
Oh, old road dog
Asus4 Dmaj7
Claim my name from the lost and found
Dm F#m
And let me believe this is where I belong
Dmaj7
Shame on me for sure
F#m E A Aadd9 A
For one more highway song
Asus F#m E A Aadd9 A Asus F#m E A
