Em D I have wandered through the hills of better days C G Broken my own heart with my cheatin’ ways Em D So I’ll try to make amends I will rectify C D All the time I spent more dead than alive Chorus C G Darlin’ hitch up the Conestoga Em D C Ride my gently to & fro C G I have searched many a lifetime Em D C All for what I do not know Em D C All for what I know Em D Give me freedom like the flight of a raven’s wing C GLie down with the sun, rise and start to sing Em D Lonesome doves will always find their way back home C D But there’s seed to feed anywhere we roam Chorus Bridge D C I will take the reins when you need to sleep D C I will soothe your pain if your back grows weak G D But first these words you must speak C Em C D I am ready to go, I’m ready to go Chorus C D Darlin’ hitch up the Conestoga Em D C Ride my gently sweet and low C D I have searched many a lifetime Em D C All for what I do not know Em D C All for what I know Ready to go…ready to go I have wandered through the hills of better days…..
