CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
Oh, I've been hittin' some hard travelling, I thought you knowed
I've been hittin' some hard travelling, Gway down the road
CI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Fhard ramblin', Dhard gamblin'
GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
[Verse 2 ]
I've been hittin' some hard rock mining, I thought you knowed
North Dakota, Kansas City, Gway down the road
CCuttin' that wheat an' stacking that hay, Ftrying to make about a Ddollar a day
An' GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
[Instrumental]
C           G    C    F  D  G    C
[Verse 3]
I've been workin' in Pittsburgh steel and I thought you knowed
And I've been dumpin' that red hot slag Gway down the road
CI've been blastin' an' I've been firin', FI've been pumpin' that Dred hot iron
GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
[Verse 4]
An' I've been layin' in a county jail, I thought you knowed
I've been layin' there ninety days, Gway down the road
CDamned old judge he said to me, "That's Fninety days for Dvagrancy"
An' GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
GI've been hittin' some hard travelling, Clord
