The Road It Gives And The Road It Takes Away chords by Tom Russell


Tom Russell Chords

Tom Russell - The Road It Gives, The Road It Takes Away 

Capo 3

D                    G              D
I was walking down a quiet road in Ireland
D                 G                  A
Out beneath those tough old ancient stars
                  Bm                                       G
When  I thought I heard old Scottish Mike singing Carrick Fergus
 	  	     D 	  	               	        A
As I recalled those wild days in those loud Norwegian bars


D                      G                    D
Hed sing, Im drunk today and Im rarely sober,
D                     G             A
Like a soldier on the road to Mandalay.
          Bm                            G
Well the road it gave him wine and the women fair and fine
    D                               A
He drunk himself to death, I heard today


Chorus:
A                                         D
But well sing hallelujah, sing it in the morning
     G 	  	         Bm 	  	    A
And thank the Lord for giving us one more day
 	     D                         G
And for the ones that have passed on through
       D                G
Well sing this one for you
     G                    A             D
The road it gives and the road it takes away



My baby said she didnt mind me travelin
She enjoyed the time alone when I was gone
Til she looked me in the eyes and said its  over
And I saw the anger buried far too long

I picked up my guitar and sang the Dutchman
About two people whose love had seen kinder days
But my baby she was gone, before the song was sung
Well my music never touched her anyway


Chorus:

The road it gives and the road it takes away
The road it gives and the road it takes away
