I Got A Name chords
Jim Croce *

E B7 E B7 2x

E                   B7                 C#m
Like the pine trees lining the winding road,
           A   B7           E   
I ve got a name, I ve got a name
                 B7                    C#m
Like the singing bird and the croaking toad,
           F#               B7
I ve got a name, I ve got a name

G#m            A               E        G#
And I carry it with me like my daddy did,
                   C#m  F#              B7
but I'm living the dream, that he can't give

G#m                A
Moving me down the highway, 
G#m                 C#m
rolling me down the highway
A               B7                 E
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

E                   B7                 C#m
Like the north wind whistling down the sky,
           A   B7           E
I ve got a song, I ve got a song
                 B7                  C#m
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry,
           F#               B7
I ve got a song, I ve got a song

G#m            A             E           G#
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud,
              C#m    F#              B7
if it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud

G#m                A
Moving me down the highway, 
G#m                 C#m
rolling me down the highway
A               B7                 E
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

E B7 C#m  A B7 E   B7 C#m  F# B7

E
And I'm gonna go there freeeeeee

E               B7                 C#m
Like the fool I am and I ll always be,
           A    B7           E
I ve got a dream, I ve got a dream

E                     B7                         C#m
They can change their minds but the can t change me,
           F#                B7
I ve got a dream, I ve got a dream

G#m            A               E         G#
I know I could share it if you want me to,
                C#m   F#             B7
if you're going my way, I'll go with you

G#m                A
Moving me down the highway, 
G#m                 C#m
rolling me down the highway
A               B7                 E
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

G#m                A
Moving me down the highway, 
G#m                 C#m
rolling me down the highway
A               B7                 E
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by
