Intro
Em  Am   Em  B7  Em  Am  B7
       Em                     B7                   Em
She?s off to anywhere, every town grows stale soon enough

         C             G           Am           Em
So it?s fields to the east and the hills to the west

       B7
Under crescent moons and grass?.
 
                       Em  Am   Em  B7
She lays her head to rest    

           Em         
she's been in a hundred movies
    B7              Em
and in six billion dreams
        C            G
taking out wood and wide
        Am                Em
singing romance round the fire
       B7
giving tastes of truth to those of us employed as liars
Em Am Em B7

             C             G
and we sing ain't that the life
C            G
she's got it made
    Am          Em         B7          Em
her head in the sand her guitar in the shade
C        G      C           G
rambling beauty she sang to me
    Am         Em
was she in my mind
   B7     Em
or on the tv
    Am          Em
yes she's on my mind
     B7       Em
come from the tv


I'll get to the rest of this another time. Should give you the basic idea for the rest of the song...


noble hobo corporate cutthroat got the wisdom of the tramp
brother can't spare no crumbs
don't you trip over the bums
as you step out of a cab
on the way to see a gypsy band

railroad boxcar blasts and burns on down the line
and her feet are a swingin'
and the song she's a singin'
tell of greener fields and freer times

and we sing ain't that the life
she's got it made
her head in the sand her guitar in the shade
rambling beauty she sang to me
was she in my mind
or on the tv
yes she's on my mind
come from the tv

rambling beauty
let me be your mate for awhile
be a shoulder for your head
carry a bag and roll up bed
another day in this place
and i swear i'll end up dead

and how I'm sorry
that my ancestors threw you in jail
but now I can see your ramblings were poetry
will you sell me the rights if I put up the bail?

and we'll sing ain't that the life
we've got it made
our heads in the sand our guitars in the shade
rambling beauty sing sweet to me
yeah you're on my mind
just like on tv
yeah you're on my mind
come from the tv
