It's the ^Fmaj7same sad story, love and glory goin' 'round and 'round It's the ^Bbmaj7same old cliché, a wanderer on his way, s^Fmaj7lippin' 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 ^Fmaj7permanent place of your own

[Chorus]

I'm a ^Ebmaj7wayfarer, baby, I drift from ^Bbmaj7town 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 s^Fmaj7tart out slow in a sweet little bungalow, something two can call home Then ^Bbmaj7rain comes fallin', the blues come calling, and you're ^Fmaj7left with a heart of stone Some ^Fmaj7folks are inspired sitting by the fire, slippers tucked under the bed But when ^Bbmaj7I go to sleep I can't count sheep for the ^Fmaj7white lines in my head

[Chorus]

I'm a ^Ebmaj7wayfarer, baby, I drift from ^Bbmaj7town to town When ^Bbmaj7everyone's asleep and the midnight bells sound My wheels are hissin' up the highway, spinning ^Fmaj7'round and 'round
