The Wanderer

G5
I went out walking through the streets paved with gold

C                                               G5
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones of a city without a soul
C
I went out walking under an atomic sky
G5
Where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns
  C
 Like the tears when I said goodbye

Em               C        G5                         D
Yeah I went with nothing, nothing but the thought of you
       Em            C      D    G5
I went wandering

G5
I went drifting through the capitals of tin
      C                                 G5
Where men can't walk or freely talk and sons turn their fathers in
Continues after the ad
     C                                   G5
I stopped outside a church house where the citizens like to sit
     C                                   G5
They say they want the kingdom, but they don't want GOD in it
     C                                 G5
I went out riding down that old eight lane
C                            G5
I passed by a thousand signs looking for my own name
Em          C        G5                             D
Yea I went with nothing, but the thought you'd be there too
            Em          C      D   G5
Looking for you

G5
I went out there in search of experience
   Em                        C
To taste and to touch and to feel as much
G5          D                   Em  C  D  G5
As a man can before he repents

G5
I went out searching, looking for one good man
   C
A spirit who would not bend or break

Who could sit at his father's right hand

          G5
I went out walking with a bible and a gun
    C                                        G5
The Word of GOD lay heavy on my heart, I was sure I was the one
     C                                 G5
Now Jesus, don't You wait up, Jesus, I'll be home soon
     C                          G5
Yeah I went out for the papers, told her I'd be back by noon
Em               C                G5                     D
Yeah I left with nothing, but the thought you'd be there too
            Em      C    D   G5
Looking for you
Em               C        G5                         D
Yeah I left with nothing, nothing but the thought of you
       Em          C    D   G5
I went wandering
