Written by Gordon Lightfoot

	  		



Intro: C  G  Am    G  ~ ~ ~ C 

verse 1: 
G           Am       D 
Try to understand 
                      F            C       F 
I'm not your ordinary man, still I can't deny 
       D7/F# 
You go with me everywhere 
         F                  D7/F#           C  G     C  G  C 
When I'm dreaming you still share my lonely nights 


verse 2: 
G             Am      D 
Try to see my side 
                       F                C          F 
It's not your ordinary pride that keeps driving me on 
          D7/F#                               F 
It's that lonesome, restless feeling that you feel under the gun

And it leads me to the highway, but it keeps my body warm
