[Intro]
Fmaj7
Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
[Verse 1]
It's the Fmaj7same sad story, love and glory goin' 'round and 'round
It's the Bbmaj7same old cliché, a wanderer on his way, slFmaj7ippin' from town to town
Fmaj7Some find peace here on the sweet streets, the sweet streets of home
Where Bbmaj7kindness falls and your heart calls for a pFmaj7ermanent place of your own
[Chorus]
I'm a wEbmaj7ayfarer, baby, I drift from tBbmaj7own to town
When Bbmaj7everyone's asleep and the midnight bells sound
My wheels are hissin' up the highway, spinning Fmaj7'round and 'round
[Verse 2]
You Fmaj7start out slow in a sweet little bungalow, something two can call home
Then Bbmaj7rain comes fallin', the blues come calling, and yFmaj7ou're left with a heart of stone
Some fFmaj7olks are inspired sitting by the fire, slippers tucked under the bed
But when Bbmaj7I go to sleep I can't count sheep for the whFmaj7ite lines in my head
[Chorus]
I'm a wEbmaj7ayfarer, baby, I roam from toBbmaj7wn to town
When Bbmaj7everyone's asleep and the midnight bells sound
My wheels are hissin' up the highway, spinning Fmaj7'round and 'round
[Bridge]
Ebmaj7Where are you now, whDm7ere are you now?
Dbmaj7Where are you nC7ow?
[Solo]
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
[Chorus]
I'm a wEbmaj7ayfarer, baby, I roam from tBbmaj7own to town
When Bbmaj7everyone's asleep and the midnight bells sound
My wheels are hissin' up the highway, spinning Fmaj7'round and 'round
[Outro]
I'm a Ebmaj7wayfarer, baby
I'm a Fmaj7wayfarer, baby
I'm a Ebmaj7wayfarer, baby (Wayfarer, baby)
I'm a Fmaj7wayfarer, baby (Wayfarer, baby)
I'm a Ebmaj7wayfarer, baby (Wayfarer, baby)
I'm a Fmaj7wayfarer, baby (Wayfarer, baby)
I'm a Ebmaj7wayfarer, baby (Wayfarer, baby)
I'm a Fmaj7wayfarer, baby (Wayfarer, baby)
Fmaj7
