        E
Well I guess if my daddy hadn't brought me up 

Down a long dirt road in a pickup truck 
      A                             E
I'd feel alright, 'neath the city lights 
        B               A                   E
Couldn't leave the city lights it just ain't right 

        E
I was born out west of Cheyenne town 

While my ma and pa was ramblin' 'round 
         A                          E
I'm a rambler too, but I'm country bound 
       B              A              E
I'll travel till my country home is found 

            A
And I will travel (Ooh)
            E
Yeah, I will travel (Ooh)
         B              A              E
I will travel 'till my country home is found

Well a country song on the radio 

Country star but what do you know 
       A                        E
He's a city boy singin country tunes 
      B            A               E
I'm a country boy with those city blues 

         A
So I will travel 
          E
Yeah I will travel 
     B                A                 E
I will travel 'till my country home is found

E 
I've got the wheels to ride and the wheels to run, 

Some say I got ramblin' in my blood 
      A                      E
No pretty girl can slow me down 
       B              A                  E
I'll travel 'till my country home is found
