NEVER TIRE OF THE ROAD
Andy Irvine
Originally in key of E so it's easy/nice to play in D with capo on 2
Leave the low E string un-capo'd to allow a nice E drone
3rd verse is optional and only sung by Andy on older recordings
[Intro]
A D G A A D G Bm A D x2
[Verse 1]
D G D Bm A D
I was just a small-time country boy when I left that dusty town,
D G D G A
Route 66 to the westward and hopped an old freight down.
G G D
California, here I come,
G A D
By the side-door Pullman and the sunburnt thumb,
Bm A F#/D G
And they called us Okies, lowdown bums,
D A D
And the po-lice on us frowned.
[Chorus]
D G D
Never tire of the road, Never tire of the rolling wheel.
G A G D G A
Never tire of the ways of the world, Way out yonder is a-calling me.
D G D Bm A G
And the dark road leads me onwards, and the highway that's my code,
D F#/D G D Bm A D
And the lonesome voice that I heard in my head said: Never tire of the road.
[Instrumental]
A D G A A D G Bm A D
[Verse 2]
D G D Bm A D
California to the New York Island, me and my guitar,
D G D G A
And we played in many a hobo jungle, many a skid-row bar,
G G D
Standing out in the wind and the rain,
G A D
That lonesome whistle is a sweet refrain,
Bm A F#/D G
When you're waiting for some old freight train,
D A D
That carries an empty car.
[Chorus]
D G D
Never tire of the road, Never tire of the rolling wheel.
G A G D G A
Never tire of the ways of the world, Way out yonder is a-calling me.
D G D Bm A G
And the dark road leads me onwards, and the highway that's my code,
D F#/D G D Bm A D
And the lonesome voice that I heard in my head said: Never tire of the road.
[Instrumental]
A D G A A D G Bm A D
[Verse 3]
D G D Bm A D
Shipped on board of a liberty ship to sail the ocean blue.
D G D G A
We were carrying guns, TNT, D-Day soldiers too.
G G D
All of the men on board agreed
G A D
With Cisco, Jimmy, Longhi and me,
Bm A F#/D G
And our song rang out across the sea:
D A D
You fascists bound to lose.
G D
All you fascists bound to lose.
G D
Yes, all you fascists bound to lose.
G D
I said: all you fascists bound to lose.
D A D
You're bound to lose. You fascists bound to lose.
[Chorus]
D G D
Never tire of the road, Never tire of the rolling wheel.
G A G D G A
Never tire of the ways of the world, Way out yonder is a-calling me.
D G D Bm A G
And the dark road leads me onwards, and the highway that's my code,
D F#/D G D Bm A D
And the lonesome voice that I heard in my head said: Never tire of the road.
[Instrumental]
A D G A A D G Bm A D
[Verse 4]
D G D Bm A D
Don't let them ever fool you, or take you by surprise,
D G D G A
That dirty smell of a politician and the man with the greed in his eyes.
G G D
One big union that's our plan
G A D
And the IWW's your only man.
Bm A F#/D G
The flames of discontent we'll fan
D A D
For the cause that never dies.
[Chorus]
D G D
Never tire of the road, Never tire of the rolling wheel.
G A G D G A
Never tire of the ways of the world, Way out yonder is a-calling me.
D G D Bm A G
And the dark road leads me onwards, and the highway that's my code,
D F#/D G D Bm A D
And the lonesome voice that I heard in my head said: Never tire of the road.
[Outro]
A D G A A D G Bm A D
