C 
A cold wind from a distant shore blew in from an open window 
                F                        C 
On the day I was born , put a chill in my bones 
C 
A restless heart carried me away , I've been stranded on the endless 
highway 
          F						C 
I've been travelling over mountains , got my back to the sun 
 
 
C      G     F     G        C      G    Am 
I grow weary of the sight , of the dark horizon  
C         G                  F     G 
But I make some miles , and I feel alright 
     F                  E 
I'll leave another place behind .... 
 
 
( Chorus ) 
         Am 
I've been roaming from town to town 
	     C 
Like a wanted man , and I'm west-ward bound 
	  Am 
I've been living from day to day 
		C			    Am 
On the smell of coffee and the sound of the highway... 
 
 
C 
As the days grow colder and the nights grow long 
You'll look for me but you know I'll be gone 
	F 
Can you hear that midnight train ? 
		C 
Come to take me away 
C				F  
Tell me why does a travelling man 
C 
Tell me why does a Travelling Man 
F					C 
Have to keep on moving , will he ever go home ? 
 
C          G     F         G 
And can he find a place to rest 
C     G         Am 
Shelter from the storm 
C         G             F         G 
Where he's bound that's anybody's guess 
       F                       E 
But the wind keeps calling him on ....
