       Dm     C       F   G
I?m a drifter, l'm a loner
          Dm         C         F   G
And I've seen every city and town
       Dm     C             F    G
I?ll pass by here and I'll die here
           Dm           C         Dm  C F   G
And some stranger will lower me down

     Dm            C         F          G
I've sat in the shade of an oId apple orchard
  Dm              C             F   G
Watched the big trucks rollin' by
  Dm             C           F         G
Shared a grape soda with a man from Dakota
     Dm7     G6         Dm  C  F  G
And seen a June bug in July

I?m a drifter...
     Dm            C                F          G
I?ve played basketball through the hoop of a barrel
 Dm            C           F     G
Struggled to learn how to swim
          Dm              C       F          G
Though I sometimes think maybe I once was a baby
     Dm7     G6         Dm  C  F  G
I only pretend I was him

I?m a drifter...

          Dm            C            F            G
I?ve made love in your city til the poor and the pretty
     Dm            C         F          G
Thought I was clever and smart
     Dm            C         F          G
I?ve ended up lonely with nothin? but only
     Dm7     G6         Dm  C  F  G
A song and a half of a heart

       Dm     C       F   G
I?m a drifter, l'm a loner
          Dm         C         F   G
And I've seen every city and town
       Dm     C             F    G
I?ll pass by here and I'll die here
           Dm           C        F   G
And some stranger will lower me 
Dm              C        Dm
Stranger will lower me down
