Capo 4th fret (chords played as you'd play them with no fret):
I play the road
G A D
And the highway is our song
G D
And every city's like the same three chords
Em A D7sus4
Been helping us along when the story's told
G D
And the crowd has come and gone
G D A D
Shaking off the miles and trying to make it home
G G7
Every exit is a season,
Em D
Every signal is a beacon
G G7
And the wind, it carries me
Em A
And it eases up my load
G G7
Everyday I drag the turns
Em D
Every candle still burns
G G7
And every lesson I have learned
Em G7 Em D
Brings us closer to the crowd
Chorus:
G
I play the road
G A D
And the highway is our song
G D
And every city's like the same three chords
Em A D7sus4
Been helping us along when the story's told
G D
And the crowd has come and gone
G D A D
Shaking off the miles and trying to make it home
G G7
Well the bus it is our steeple,
Em D
It brings us to the people
G G7
And they will be there waiting
Em A
Dancing young and old
G G7
And every one of us gets tired
Em D
But every one remains inspired
G G7
And every one of us require
Em G7 Em D
To keep picking through our souls
Chorus:
G
I play the road

She says, "Daddy where do you go
D Dmaj7 D6
When you leave me all these nights
Em G
With a suitcase and guitar in your hand?

Kissing me and mom goodbye with a tear and a smile
Em
Where do you go
G A B
Daddy where do you go?"
