Waylon Jennings – The Road chords

     G         C             GBack home, The familys eating dinner.
                      C                 GTheres a fire, in the fireside warm and bright
                                    Am            CBut I won't be there today, cause I got a debt to pay
         Am                   D                     EmAnd they dont let black sheep stray from the road
        Am                   D             GNo they dont let black sheep stray from the road


   G         C             GMy throat is crying out for water
          C               GLord that wind is blowing cold
                                  Am           CThat guard is watching me, like a hawk up in a tree
        Am            D                     EmAnd I'm longing to be free, from the road
        Am            D                      GYes I'm longing to be free, from the road


      G     C               GEvery bone, inside my body's aching
                    C                 GAnd that guard dont care if I live or die
                               Am         CHe told me yesterday, son dont try to get away,
        Am              D           EmOr I'll lay you down to stay, by the road
         Am              D           GYes I'll lay you down to stay, by the road.
