    G C G C
  • I am a travelling man, I have no country
    G C G C
    And travelling people are my kin by birth
  • G C G C
    No chains will keep me from my destination
    G C G G
  • And far-flung are my footsteps on this earth
     
    Am D
  • There's something in my mind that makes me
    Am D
    Something in the wind that takes me
  • G C D
    Like the dust, I'm blown out on the street again
     
  • G C G
    Restless highway
    C/E D
  • I need to leave this town behind
    G C G
    Restless highway
  • C/E D
    Come see the country of my mind
    G C G
  • You hear my footsteps
    C D
    Wherever this rocky road will wind
  • G C D G
    This empty restless highway is my heart
     
  • By way of trade I am anything you fancy
    I'll sew your purse, I'll milk your garden cow
    I'll shine your shoes or sew your silver button
  • I'll punch your nose, I'll sharpen up your plough
     
    There's something in my mind that makes me
  • Something in the wind that takes me
    Like the dust, I'm blown out on the street again
    Restless highway
  • I need to leave this town behind
    Restless highway
    Come see the country of my mind
  • You hear my footsteps wherever this rocky road will wind
    This empty restless highway is my heart

    SWEET SURRENDER
  •  
    I gave my heart to you
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
  • I gave my heart to you
    Oh, oh, oh, sweet surrender
    Sweet surrender, ah, sweet surrender
  • How long, how long, how long?
     
    I'd give the world for you
  • Oh, oh, oh, oh
    I'd give the world for you
    Oh, oh, oh, sweet surrender
  • Sweet surrender, ah, sweet surrender
    How long, how long, how long?
     
  • You make me weep when you touch my hand
    Oh, I should run from here but I can't seem to stand
    Oh, I can't leave you
  • Oh, I believe you
    And I believe you'll understand
     
  • I feel you next to me
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    I feel you next to me
  • Oh, oh, oh, sweet surrender
    Sweet surrender, ah, sweet surrender
    How long, how long, how long?
  •  
    Oh, I can't leave you
    Oh, I believe you
  • And I believe you'll understand
     
    You make my heart beat
  • Oh, oh, oh, oh
    You make my heart beat
    Oh, oh, oh, sweet surrender
  • Sweet surrender, ah, sweet surrender
    How long, how long, how long?

    DON'T LET A THIEF STEAL INTO YOUR HEART
  •  
    (Chorus)
    Don't let a thief steal into your heart
  • Or you may end up broken-hearted
    Don't let a whisper tear you apart
    Or you'll be right back where you started
  •  
    How many days does a man think he has
    That he can spend his whole time dreaming?
  • How many schemes isn't one man thinking up
    And does he think he's the only one scheming?
     
  • (Chorus)
     
    Stop your lies and stop your cheating
  • It never did you no good, no good
    How can you say you will when you won't
    When you know you never would if you could?
  •  
    (Chorus)
     
  • Everyone is in love with money
    Strange news 'cause they say that love is blind
    How many times did you meet somebody
  • Who said they had some real peace of mind?
     
    (Chorus)
  • (Chorus)
     
    THE CHOICE WIFE
  • (Instrumental)
     
    DIED FOR LOVE
  •  
    Ab Bb Ab Bb
    John Gumblain, Annie Painter
  • Eb Ab Bb
    They were true lovers to the end
    Ab Bb Ab Bb
  • They grew up together
    Eb Bb
    In the streets where no one is your friend
  • Eb Bb
    They mixed their hearts' blood together
    Eb Bb
  • They swore they'd always be true
    Eb Bb
    When Annie left for the summer
  • Eb Ab Bb
    She said "For now, but never adieu"
     
  • "I'd give my life to be with you"
     
    Some will die for fortune,
  •  
    Some will die for pleasure
     
  • But only lovers died for love
     
    The summer turned into winter
  • But Annie Painter never came
    Cold wind blew through the dark town
    And it chilled the heart of John Gumblain
  • He took the road to every city
    He sailed to every port of call
    He hung his head as tears were falling
  • He scratched his message on the wall
     
    "I'd give my life to be with you"
  • Some will die for fortune, some will die for pleasure
    But only lovers died for love
     
  • He was broken, he was . . .
    His face was old and cracked with tears
    He was dying of disease
  • That shook his frame for thirteen years
    As he lay sickening by the roadside
    A voice came drifting through the air
  • It was the voice of Annie Painter
    She sang a song ?three times clear?
     
  • "I'd give my life to be with you"
    Some will die for fortune, some will die for pleasure
    But only lovers died for love
  •  
    He went running through the city
    He searched for day after day
  • When he found her, she was dying
    And all for love of John Gumblain
    She said "Forgive my cruel father
  • He tried to keep me away
    And don't despair for my dying
    For this is our wedding day"
  •  
    "I'd give my life to be with you"
    Some will die for fortune, some will die for pleasure
  • But only lovers died for love
    But only lovers died for love
    (repeat)
  •  
    STRANGE AFFAIR
     
  • This is a strange affair
    The time has come to travel but the road is filled with fear
    This is a strange affair
  • My youth has all been wasted and I'm bent and grey with years
    And all my companions are taken away
    And who will provide for me against my dying day?
  • I took my own provision but it threw me and wasted away
    This is a strange, this is a strange affair
     
  • Oh, where are my companions?
    My mother, father, lover, friend and enemy
    Where are my companions?
  • They're prisoners of death now and taken far from me
    And where are the dreams I dreamed in the days of my youth?
    They took me to illusion and they promised me the truth
  • And what do sleepers need to make them listen, why do they need ?more
    room??
    This is a strange, this is a strange affair
  •  
    LAYLA
     
  • I drew near to the house of Layla
    It was then I heard her call
    Her sweet voice made me wish that it would never end at all
  • Oh, you say you see some good in me
    It's only from her light
    Take this . . . from me, don't look to her delight
  •  
    She was pleased with me
    She drew me nearer
  • She turned me into a retreat
    Oh, she didn't like company
    She spoke to me
  • She let me, a sinner, free
     
    (Chorus)
  • Oh, Layla, Layla, Layla, Layla
    Oh, Layla, Layla, Layla, Layla
    Oh, Layla, Layla, Layla, Layla
  • Oh, Layla, Layla, Layla, Layla
     
    Then she came close to me
  • The veils fell from her sight
    She dazzled me, she bewildered me
    Confused me with her light
  • Oh, you say you see some good in me
    It's only from her light
    Take this . . . from me, don't look to her delight
  •  
    And there she took me
    And there she possessed me
  • She showed her meaning to me
    I thought my soul
    Would be her ransom
  • I thought that she was leaving
     
    (Chorus)
  •  
    And there she slew me
    She tore me to pieces
  • My blood stained like a dye
    And when I was dead
    She brought me to life
  • My star shone in her sky
     
    (Chorus)
  •  
    PAVANNE
     
  • Pavanne, cold steel woman, Pavanne
    How do you love a woman
    With eyes cold as the barrel of her gun?
  • Who's never missed her mark on anyone
    Pavanne, Pavanne, Pavanne
     
  • Casino doors swing open, the rich men raise their eyes
    They say "Who is this beauty, as elegant as ice?"
    And later there's an accident, another charge d'affaires
  • Is lying in a pool of blood, no witness anywhere
    And they say she was a hundred miles away
     
  • The hotel porter saw her climb the stairs
    And the maid, with trembling hands, knows what to say
    When the judge says "Are you sure?", "I'm sure," she swears
  •  
    Pavanne, cold steel woman, Pavanne
    How do you love a woman
  • With eyes cold as the barrel of her gun?
    Who's never missed her mark on anyone
    Pavanne, Pavanne, Pavanne
  •  
    At the presidential palace, a thousand people saw
    His Excellency leave his car and never make the door
  • The blood flows from his fingers as he clutches at the stain
    He staggers like a drunken man lies twisted in the rain
    And they say she grew up well-provided for
  •  
    Her mother used to keep her boys for sure
    And father's close attention led to talk
  • She learned to stab her food with a silver fork
     
    Pavanne, cold steel woman, Pavanne
  •  
    And they say she didn't do it for the money
    And they say she didn't do it for the man
  • They say that she did it for the pleasure
    The pleasure of the moment
     
  • Pavanne, cold steel woman, Pavanne
     
    How do you stop this woman
  • When everyone is moving in a trance?
    Like prisoners of some slow portly dance
    Pavanne, Pavanne, Pavanne
  • Pavanne, Pavanne, Pavanne
     
    HOUSE OF CARDS
  •  
    Oh, the rain is falling Blow, blow, down
    And the whirlwind rolls Blow, blow, down
  • I'll shake your windows Blow, blow, down
    And rattle your door Blow, blow, down
     
  • Blow down this house of cards
    Blow down this house of cards
     
  • They're washing the streets Blow, blow, down
    With the blood of your kind Blow, blow, down
    Ah, look over your shoulder Blow, blow, down
  • They're right behind Blow, blow, down
     
    Blow down this house of cards
  • Blow down this house of cards
     
    The birds are wheeling Blow, blow, down
  • Up above your head Blow, blow, down
    All your days are numbered Blow, blow, down
    You're as good as dead Blow, blow, down
  •  
    Blow down this house of cards
    Blow down this house of cards
  •  
    This very fine house Blow, blow, down
    Of great renown Blow, blow, down
  • It's cracked and shaky Blow, blow, down
    And a-tumbling down Blow, blow, down
     
  • Blow down this house of cards
    Blow down this house of cards
    Blow down this house of cards
  • Blow down this house of cards
