The Wanderer

(início)

(intro) D

    I went out walking through streets paved with gold,
    G                                                D
    lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones of a city without a soul.
    D
    I went out walking under an atomic sky,
                G
    where the ground won't turn, and the rain it burns
              D
    like the tears when I said goodbye.
   Bm                 G        D                          A
   Yeah, I went with nothing, nothing but the thought of you,
           Bm        G A D
    I went wandering.
    D
    I went drifting through the capitals of tin,
           G                                   D
    where men can't walk, or freely talk, and sons turn their fathers in.
        D
    I stopped outside a church house, where the citizens like to sit,
          G                                   D
    they say they want the kingdom, but they don't want God in it.
   D
    I went out riding down that ol' eight lane,
   G                              D
    I passed by a thousand signs looking for my own name.
 Bm             G                 D                      A
   I went with nothing, but the thought you'd be there, too,
                Bm  G A D
    looking for you.
D   G                       D
       I went out there in search of experience,
       Bm                         G
    to taste and to touch and to feel as much
D                   A                      Bm G A D
    as a man can         before he repents.
   D
    I went out searching, lookin' for one good man,
        G
    a spirit who would not bend or break,
              D
    who would sit at his father's right hand.
   D
    I went out walking with a Bible and a gun,
         G                                        D
    the word of God lay heavy on my heart, I was sure I was the one.
          D
    Now, Jesus, don't you wait up, Jesus, I'll be home soon,
         G                            D
    yeah, I went out for the papers, told her I'd be back by noon.
    Bm                G                  D                     A
   Yeah, I left with nothing, but the thought you'd be there, too,
                Bm  G A D
    looking for you.
    Bm                G        D                          A
   Yeah, I left with nothing, nothing but the thought of you,
            Bm       G A D
    I went wandering.
