[A]
[E] [A]
Where the road is dark and the seed [C] is sown, Where the gun is [A] cocked as the bullets [C] comb,
Where the miles [A] are marked
[G] in the blood and [A] the gold,
[G] [F] I'll meet you farther [G] on [Am] up the road.
Got on my [A] dead man's suit and my smiling [C] skull ring, My lucky [A] graveyard boots and a song [C] to sing,
I got a song [Am] to sing,
[G] it keeps me out of [A] the cold,
[G] And [F] I'll meet you farther [G] on up [A] the road.
Farther [C] on up the road, farther on up [A] the road, Where the way [C] is dark and the night [E] is cold,
One sunny [Am] morning
[G] will rise [Am] I know,
[G] And [F] I'll meet you farther [G] on up [Am] the road.
[C]
[A]
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
Now I've been out in the desert just doing [C] my time, Searching through [Am] the dust looking for [C] a sign,
If there's a light [G] up ahead, well brother I [Am] don't know,
[G] [F] But I got this fever [G] burning in [A] my soul.
Farther [Am] on up [C] the road, farther on [Am] up the road,
[C]
One [E]
sunny [A] morning
[G] will [Am] rise I know,
[G] [F] And I'll meet you farther [G] on [A] up the road.
