Where Theres A Road

      G             C             
Jeff Davis was no county line to 
   D
my daddy
      G               C           
More like a wall he could not see 
   D
beyond
         Em                C   
Yeah, to me that farm was just a 
                D            G
jail and the day I hit sixteen I 
bailed
       C                D         
Shook off the Georgia dust and I 
    G
was gone

[Bridge]
G        Fm
  To the wild unknown,
G  Fm                         
      Where no light to guide me 
     G
shown
Am7          G         F    Am7
   And the wheels had ideas of 
      C
their own

[Verse]
       G                C      
Three bakes joined the ride at a 
           D
Joplin pawnshop
        G                 C       
And a hard core band somewhere 
          D
round Santa Fe
   Em                  C          
A club to wreck and a town to 
         D                 G
burn, not a cent to waste, no rock 
unturned
 C                      D         
Days like those you’ve got to 
   G
throw away

[Chorus]
G          C               D     
  Wired to the wheel and bound to no
 C
 one
Continues after the ad
G              C            
  Fire up the engine, down the 
     D    C
fences go
G      C                D       
Free, that’s about the blacktop,
      Em                  C       
 the back route, there’s always a 
G
way out
        D       G  C  D      C 
Where there’s a ro-o-oad, where
           G C D
 there’s a road

[Verse]
       G              C           
That Portland week I can’t seem to
    D
 remember
       G                   C      
Those Houston nights that just 
            D
won’t quit my mind
        Em             C          
Yeah, checking seven doors or ten,
   D               G
 better rooms just up the bend
        C             D           
And a thousand more left somewhere
   G
 behind

[Chorus]
G          C               D     
  Wired to the wheel and bound to no
 C
 one
G              C            
  Fire up the engine, down the 
     D    C
fences go
G      C                D       
Free, that’s about the blacktop,
      Em                  C       
 the back route, there’s always a 
G
way out
        D       G  C  D      C 
Where there’s a ro-o-oad, where
           G C D
 there’s a road

G         Fm
  To the last free man,
G  Fm                        G
      Ain’t no mystery can stand
Am7          G           F    
   When the key’s right there 
Am7      C
in your hand

[Verse]
    G                C          
So Amy please don’t make this any 
   D
harder
         G                      C 
This tramp you’ve lost, that’s 
               D
sure no cause to cry
    Em                  C         
No flesh and blood can buy my 
           D               G
hand, you can ask a sad ol’ Georgia 
man
            C                   D 
Since I’ve been gone it’s been one
           C
 long goodbye

[Chorus]
G          C               D     
  Wired to the wheel and bound to no

G              C            
  Fire up the engine, down the 
     D    C
fences go
G      C                D       
Free, that’s about the blacktop,
      Em                  C       
 the back route, there’s always a 
G
way out
        D       G  C  D      C 
Where there’s a ro-o-oad, where
           G C D
 there’s a road  (x2)
