D5 C5 F5 G5
I?m a drifter, l'm a loner
D5 C5 F5 G5
And I've seen every city and town
D5 C5 F5 G5
I?ll pass by here and I'll die here
D5 C5 D5 C5 F5 G5
And some stranger will lower me down
D5 C5 F5 G5
I've sat in the shade of an oId apple orchard
D5 C5 F5 G5
Watched the big trucks rollin' by
D5 C5 F5 G5
Shared a grape soda with a man from Dakota
D5 G5 D5 C5 F5 G5
And seen a June bug in July
I?m a drifter...
D5 C5 F5 G5
I?ve played basketball through the hoop of a barrel
D5 C5 F5 G5
Struggled to learn how to swim
D5 C5 F5 G5
Though I sometimes think maybe I once was a baby
D5 G5 D5 C5 F5 G5
I only pretend I was him
I?m a drifter...
D5 C5 F5 G5
I?ve made love in your city til the poor and the pretty
D5 C5 F5 G5
Thought I was clever and smart
D5 C5 F5 G5
I?ve ended up lonely with nothin? but only
D5 G5 D5 C5 F5 G5
A song and a half of a heart
D5 C5 F5 G5
I?m a drifter, l'm a loner
D5 C5 F5 G5
And I've seen every city and town
D5 C5 F5 G5
I?ll pass by here and I'll die here
D5 C5 F5 G5
And some stranger will lower me
D5 C5 D5
Stranger will lower me down
