Gotta Travel On

G
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
                     C              G
Summers almost gone, winters coming on

I've laid around and played around this old town too long
 G7    C              D7          G
And I feel like I've gotta travel on



Poppa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home
                        G7  C                 G
Johnny can't come home, no, Johnny can't come home

Poppa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home
 G7         C           D7             G
Cause he's been on the chain gang too long




High sheriff and police riding after me
                  G7               G
Riding after me, yes, coming after me

High sheriff and police riding after me
G7     C               D7         G
And I feel like I've gotta travel on




Want to see my honey, want to see her bad
                      G7   C             G
Want to see her bad, oh, want to see her bad

Want to see my honey, want to see her bad
 G7        C             D7            G
She's the best gal this poor boy ever had
