   I have been a rover,
E                            A           D/A
    I have walked a-lone.
A                            Bm
    Hiked a hundred highways,
E                         A              A/Ab
    Never found a home.

        Still and all I'm happy.
D                               Bm7b5

      Before the summer storm.
F#m                             C#m
       Oh, her eyes were tender,
D                               E
    Oh, her arms were warm.

And she could smile               away the thunder,
D                         Bm7b5
    Kiss away the rain.
        A                 Bm            D                 Bm7b5

And she could laugh             away the dark clouds,
D                       Bm7b5
    Cry away the snow.
     A                Bm       D               Bm7b5
It seems like on  -  ly    yesterday,

As down the road  I     go.
