Billy Strings – A Walking Song (Guitar)

G
The Road goes ever ever on,

                    Em
Over rock and under tree,

G                            C
By caves where never sun has shone,

G               D              G
By streams that never find the sea;

G
Over snow by winter sown,

G                              Em
And through the merry flowers of June,

G                   C
Over grass and over stone,

G         D                G
And under mountains in the moon.

G
The Road goes ever ever on

                      Em
Under cloud and under star,

G                            C
Yet feet that wandering have gone

G       D            G
Turn at last to home afar.

G
Eyes that fire and sword have seen

G                          Em
And horror in the halls of stone

G                       C
Look at last on meadows green

G             D                    G
And trees and hills they long have known.

G
Well the roads go ever on and on

                               Em
And down from the door where it began.

G                          C
Now far ahead that Road has gone,

G          D           G
And I must follow if I can!

G
Pursuing it with eager feet ,

G                          Em
Until it joins some larger way

G                            C
Where many paths and errands meet,

G           D              G
And whither then? I cannot say.

G
All that is gold does not glitter,

                             Em
Not all those who wander are lost;

G                               C
The old that is strong does not wither,

G                  D              G
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

G
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

G                              Em
A light from the shadows will spring;

G                               C
Renewed will be blade that was broken,

G                 D              G
And the crownless again shall be king

G                 D              G
And the crownless again shall be king.
