CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro] 
G   D   Em   C   G   D   G   D
[Verse 1]
GRoll down the road, slow down your wheels
Leave your Dtrouble behind, how good it feels
CTumbling along with the Emsun up in the Gsky
[Verse 2]
We steal a little honey from a honey bee
DHe don't mind, he knows it comforts me
CTastes so good and Emsweet along the Gway
[Verse 3]
You work your life away day and night
DSoon you're gonna lose your appetite
For Clife, for love, for Emdoing just any old Gthing
[Verse 4]
So, raise your glass up high with me
We'll Dsing a song or two to keep us company
Be Ceasy now, we're Emall just driftin' Gthrough
[Chorus]
Driftin' Dthrough, driftin' Emthrough
CAhh, it's the Embest that we can Gdo__D_
GDriftin' Dthrough, driftin' Emthrough
CAhh, we're Emall just driftin' Gthrough
Instrumental:      
D    Em    C  Em  G  D G D    Em    C  Em  G
[Verse 5]
Take the slow road, make it last
Lay Ddown your load, let it all pass
CRoll along, just Emroll till the day is Gdone
[Verse 6]
We'll take a big fat boat across the China Sea
DFloating down the river's too fast for me
We'll Cget there soon eEmnough just driftin' Gthrough
[Chorus]
Driftin' Dthrough, driftin' Emthrough
CAhh, it's the Embest that we can Gdo__D_
GDriftin' Dthrough, driftin' Emthrough
CAhh, we're Emall just driftin' Gthrough
[Chorus]
Driftin' Dthrough, driftin' Emthrough
