From the album:  "No Time To Kill,"  (BMG Music, 1993)

NOTES:   Each letter in the intro and the two verses (ie. the indented
portions) represents 1 measure (4 beats).  Each letter in the chorus/bridge
represents only half a measure (2 beats).  On the CD there is a long
harmonica intro and fiddle outro which are not transcribed.

INTRO:      D    A     G     A

            D                          A
            Got a big leather suitcase, all I own's inside.
            G                            G
            Seems I been walkin' for days, can't even bum a ride.
            D                      A
            Try steppin' to a tune, with the rhythm of a walking man;
            G                               G
            Mind drifts like a big balloon, out of my situation at hand.

Ain't it funny how a melody, can bring back a memory?
D                   A             G           A                    D     A

Take you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind.


            D                             A
            Walkin' down a lonely highway, not feelin' alone;
            G                                    G
            Thinkin' back when things went my way, and not the road I'm on.
            D                                  A
            Well, I've been down a time or two, but it never lasts long;
            G                            G
            I can always make it through, on a wing and a prayer and a song.

D              A                        G                        A
It can get you singin' along, chase the clouds away and make the sun shine
