_ _ [C] You knew I [G] could not [A] stay for [F] long [Em] when you asked me [F] to come over [Dm] in the wee hours [C] of the morning.
[G] _ _ [C] I said I [G] could not [F] let the sunrise [Em] catch me sleeping, [F] and that is [Dm] why I've given you [G] fair warning.
_ _ [E] And though you might have [Am] loved me like I [C] never ever [F] have been loved [Dm] before, your front
[Em] door is open [Am] and I've got to [G] keep on moving.
_ _ [C] So [G] I will stay with [Am] you a while, [Em] and then I'll [F] let my hitchhike [Dm] thumb take me [C] to where
I wanna, [G] _ _ [C] because I've [G] got to [Am] keep on searching [Em] for the dream that [F] I've been seeking [Dm] since
I left my [Cm] Oklahoma.
_ [G] _ _ [E] And who's to say [Am] but that I might be [C] back tomorrow [F] if I find [Dm] there's only sorrow [Em] you
may see me [Am] from your [G] windowsill next morning.
_ _ _ [C] I'm a drifter [Em] _ [Dm] and I've seen the [G] rain.
[C] I'm a drifter [Em] _ [Dm] and I've felt the [G] pain, the pain that [Am] comes with loneliness.
[C] _ [F] So I drift from [Em] town to town, [F] searching [Em] all around, [F] looking [Em] for the answer [Dm] to my sorrow.
And if the answer is you, [G] then I'll be back [C] tomorrow.

[F] _ _ [C] _ [G] Let's make the most of time [Am] before the [Em] break of day, [F] but don't try to [Dm] make me stay if [C] I
don't want [G] to.
_ [C] _ Because [G] I've got to [Am] keep on searching [Em] for that dream and [F] you can't find [Dm] me with the
simple [C] words, I love [G] you.
_ [E] But if I [Am] realize the dream that [C] I've been searching [F] for is waiting [Dm] here behind your
[Em] door, then I'll come [Am] back to stay [C] if you still want [G] me to. _ _
_ [C] I'm a drifter [Em] _ [Dm] and I've seen the [G] rain.
[C] I'm a drifter [Em] _ [Dm] and I've felt the [G] pain, the pain that [Am] comes with loneliness.
[C] So [F] I drift from [Em] town to town, [F] searching all [Em] around, [F] looking for [Em] the answer to [Dm] my sorrow.
And if the answer is you, [G] then I'll be back [C] tomorrow.
