...ROADSINGER... by Yusuf Islam
----------------...............
*from 'Roadsinger' (2009)*
Intro:
C
Verse 1:
C                         F             C
 Roadsinger came to town; long cape and hat.
C                G           C           G           C     F C
                                                           , 
 People stood and stared, then closed their doors, as he passed.
C                              F                  C
 He strolled the empty street; kids banged on tin cans.
C                G     C     G                      C   F C
                                                        , 
 Then the panting dogs began to bark, as the roadsinger sang.
Chorus 1:
Am                G            D  F                C
 Where do you go, where do you go, when hearts are closed?
F                 Am               G                     G7
 When a friend be-comes a stranger, nobody wants to know.
Am                G            D  F                     C
 Where do you go, where do you go, when the world turns dark,
F                Am               G       F        C      F C
                                                          , 
 And the light of truth is blown out, and the roads are blocked?
Verse 2:
C                      F                        C
 He stopped by a stall, between the barrels and sacks,
C                     G      C     G             C   F C
                                                     , 
 A child's face peeped out and gave a smile, and ran back.
C                     F            C
 Behind a misty glass, on a window-pane,
C               G     C      G           C   F C
                                             , 
 A little finger drew a perfect heart, and a name.
Chorus 2:
Am                G            D  F                       C
 Where do you go, where do you go, in a world filled with fright,
F       Am                G                   G7
 Only a song to warm you,  through the night?
Am                G            D  F               C
 Where do you go, where do you go, after lies are told,
F                Am               G       F       C   F C
                                                      , 
 And the light of truth is blown out, and the night is cold?

Verse 3:
C                   F           C
 Roadsinger rode on, to another land,
C                 G      C               G        C    F C
                                                       , 
 Though the people spoke a different tongue; it under-stand.
C                             F                    C
 They showed him how to share, and took him by the hand,
C              G      C     G                  C   F C
                                                   , 
 Showed him the path to Heaven, through the desert sand.
Chorus 3:
Am                G            D   F              C
 Where do you go, where do you go,  to find happi-ness,
F           Am                 G      G7
 In a world filled with hatred, tears?
Am                G            D  F          C
 Where do you go, where do you go, if no one cares,
F         Am         G F           C     F C
                                         , 
 And every-body's lost,     looking for theirs.
