Capo II
Intro G5

              G5
I've been walking at dusk just walking

With these lonely man's blues on my back
       C5
I've been down to the well
                        G5
And I've been to the Liberty Bell
         D5        C5
But it looks to be
            G5
Getting a crack
                 G5
And I've been talking about love just talking
   
And it seems like I don't get nowhere 
     C5
So maybe I ought to go
          G5
To just where I don't know
         D5         C5
But it looks to be
            G5
Other than here

*chorus*
     D5                              C5                G5
And if I was a lighthouse I would shine out on the ocean
 D5                          C5             G5
If I was a train I would always run on time
D5                            C5                    G5
Safely on their way I would send God's weary travelers
      D5                             C5                 
And when my time was done I would leave it all
G5
Behind

                   G5                         
Well I've been thinking about war just thinking

I've been beating my plowshares thin
     C5
I sought my own redress
               G5
I read the Gettysburg Address
         D5
But old Abe it seems
    C5             G5
A hard road to win

                 G5
And I've been playing my guitar just playing

And I'm running out of good things to say
       C5
I saw what there was to see
                       G5
And they give me a Bachelor's degree
        D5                C5
And I think it's time now
               G5
That I was away
