Well it's down the road and up the hill and just around the bend 
                              G5           D5 
Pick 'em and put 'em down and pick 'em up again 
       C5             D5                  G5          C5 
And it sets me into wonderin' what it's really all about 
                                      G5          D5        G5 
Fightin' for the things we know we'll always be without 
  

                     C5 
Down the road by the way 
                          G5 
Where the laughin' waters play 
                         D5 
'Cross the ribbon-wavin' sand 
                      G5 
We go walkin' hand in hand 
 

                        C5 
Nothin' old and nothin' new 
                         G5 
Nothin' special there to do 
                        D5 
In those good old yesterdays 
                     G5 
Down the road by the way 
 

          C5                 D5            G5               C5 
Well it's light and lovely Brenda comin' cool across the waves 
                                 G5            D5 
Floatin' over rows she helped me hoe in yesterdays 
         C5                D5                G5                  C5 
And it's me whose thirsty now for all that sweet milk gone to waste 
                            G5               D5 
Somewhere on the road of no returnin' yesterdays 
 

           C5                D5               G5              C5 
Well it's down the road and up the hill and just about the bend 
                               G5           D5 
Pick 'em and put 'em down and pick 'em up again 
       C5             D5                  G5          C5 
And it sets me into wonderin' what it's really all about 
                                      G5            D5 
Fightin' for the things we know we'll always be without
