INTRO 
     C                        Am 
In a world that grows more confused each day, 
        F                           G         
The temptation gets stronger for an easy way 
   C                         Am 
To cut that corner, play the lottery. 
         F                      G 
Bend the rules a little when no-one can see, 
       C                           Am 
But it gets us nowhere, 'cause the truth within 
                 F 
Says its not the being there but the journey 
             G 
That matters in the end. 
 
 
            C                             Am 
So take the road less travelled, take the long way round, 
         F                    G 
Let your life unravel, as you cover that ground. 
     C                            Am 
Ride high in the saddle, face the world alone, 
         F                        G         Gsus         C  Am  F  G 
Take the road less travelled, and find your own way home. 
 
 
         C                        Am 
With the time we're given and all we want to do, 
  F                                  G 
Occasionally a little fear may creep up on you . 
          C                     Am 
And these voices whisper in the back of your head, 
    F                 G 
Why try so hard, give up instead. 
       F                          Am 
But it gets us nowhere 'cause the heart still knows, 
       F                                          G 
If our lives are to have any meaning there's only one way to go.

Let your life unravel, as you cover that ground. 
     C                            Am 
Ride high in the saddle, face the world alone,

Take the road less travelled, and find your own way home.
