Traveling Alone

Written by Tift Merritt

	  		

Intro: C   F C   F C 

                    F       C 
This morning, if it all was gone 

Funny thing, it wouldn't phase me none 
                  F        C 
Might feel like I just got home 

You know, I always had a taste for traveling alone 


              F         C 
Only get this one time 'round 

Better speak up straight, better speak up proud 
                   F      C 
Good Lord, if he's not at home 
                                               F  
Well, I always had a taste for traveling alone 


C        F     C 
Oh, if I had a son 

I would make him laugh, I would teach him something 
                        F         C 
I'd say, Son, you gotta hold your own 

And it's good to have a taste for traveling alone 


Instrumental: C    F  C   F  C    


         F     C 
Oh, if I had a love 

I would say, Man, got to keep up 
                       F       C 
Got to lay down, baby, feed my soul 

'Cause you know I got a taste for traveling alone 


         F     C 
Oh, if I had a song 

I would sing it now, wouldn't take too long 
                         F         C 
I'd sing, "Goodness is a real bare bone" 

And it's what you do when you're traveling alone 


                  F      C 
Down south, baby, in the heat 

I was raised up right, I was raised so sweet 
                      F       C 
Sweetness ain't gonna get you home 

Oh, you're bound to get a taste of traveling alone 


Instrumental: C    F  C   F  C   F  C   F  C    


                F        C 
I know that the world is mean 

I know it don't care, I been around, I seen 
                                  F    C 
It's like a pretty girl who don't even know 

I guess everybody here is traveling alone 


                 F       C 
Cigarettes and a pick up truck 

I'm gonna leave this town now, I got to press my luck 
            F        C 
Ocean gonna break so slow 

You know, I always had a taste for traveling alone 


OUTRO: C    F  C   F  C   F  C   F  C
