Stanley Allison Rogers (November 29, 1949 – June 2, 1983) was a Canadian folk musician and songwriter.
Rogers was noted for his rich, baritone voice and his traditional-sounding songs which were frequently inspired by Canadian history and the daily lives of working people, especially those from the fishing villages of the Maritime provinces and, later, the farms of the Canadian prairies and Great Lakes. Rogers died in a fire aboard Air Canada Flight 797 on the ground at the Greater Cincinnati Airport at the age of 33.

[C]Bits and [Em]pieces, [Am]you offered Am/G] [F]Of your life I [C]didn't think They [G]meant a lot Or said much for [C]you
[C]And all the [Em]chances to [Am]follow [Am/G] [F]Didn't make a [C]lot of sense When [G]stacked against The [Em]choices you [Am]made [Am/G]
CHORUS 1: [F]For yours [G]was the [C]open road. The [F]bitter song, the [G]heavy load That I couldn't [C]share Though the [Em]offer was [Am]there. [Am/G] [F] [F]Every [G]time you [C]turned around
Now it's not like you made out To hang around Although you know I made some sounds To show that I cared
And when it looked like you heard the call I didn't say a lot Although I could have said Much more had I dared
(CHORUS)
And if I had followed A little ways Because were friends You would have made me Welcome out there
But we both know it's just as well Cause some can go, but Some are meant To stay behind And it's always that way
CHORUS 2: And yours is the open road. The bitter song, the heavy load That I'll never share Though the offers still there Every time you turn around
And yours is the open road. The bitter song, the heavy load That I'll never share Though the offers still there
Every time you turn around Every time you turn around Every time you turn around
