For A Song

C  Em  Am  G  C  Em  Am  G

[Verse]
          F
Weathered stones
I fished out from some rushing 
C
mountain stream
         F
Yellowed books
With dog-eared pages, wildflowers 
C
pressed between
Am                   Em           
Postcards from every place where I
 F               C
 laid me down to sleep
Am          Em                    G
Little souvenirs to remind you of me

[Chorus]
        F                Am
Oh, the road is not your friend
            F           Am
It’s just a means to an end
      Em                     Dm7
How I wish I could take you along
      F              Am
But I take it all on faith
       F              Am
You’ll understand someday

Why I did all I did while I was

For a song

[Verse]
          F
I catch a glimpse
A glint of something shining 
                 C
somewhere in the great unknown
       F
Like a beast
                          C
I chase it over hills and mountains,
 valleys, rivers
 C
'Til it’s cornered on a scrap of 
paper
C
On a bedside table in some cheap 
motel where the highway drones
    Am                  Em    
Sometimes it feels like church, 
      F                            
sometimes like I’m the last man on 
  C
earth
       Am            Em           
Just a voice howling out into the 
G
darkness

[Chorus]
        F                Am
Oh, the road is not your friend
            F           Am
It’s just a means to an end
             Em                  
I’ll be home late, don’t wait up, 
                    Dm7
just leave a light on
      F              Am
But I take it all on faith
       F              Am
You’ll understand someday
      C         Am7             F
Why I did all I did while I was 
     Fm  C
gone
          Em  F

It’s just a means to an end

How I wish I could take you along
