Johnny Cash – The Wanderer (Ukulele)

Tune down half a step Intro C C F

       C               
I went out walking through the streets paved with gold

       F
Lifted some stones

       F
Saw the skin and bones

       C
Of a city without a soul

       C
I went out walking under an atomic sky

        F
Where the ground wont turn and the rain it burns

        C
Like the tears when I said goodbye

   Am               F

   C               G
Nothing but the thought of you

       Am         F    C   G
I went wandering

I went drifting through the capitals of tin Where men cant walk Or freely talk And sons turn their fathers in I stopped outside a church house Where the citizens like to sit They say they want the kingdom But they dont want God in it I went out riding Down that ol eight lane I passed by a thousand signs Looking for my own name I went with nothing But the thought youd be there too Looking for you I went out there In search of experience To taste and to touch And to feel as much As a man can Before he repents I went out searching, lookin for one good man A spirit who would not bend or break Who would sit at his fathers right hand I went out walking with a Bible and a gun The word of God lay heavy on my heart I was sure I was the one Now jesus, dont you wait up Jesus, Ill be home soon Yeah I went out for the papers Told her Id be back by noon Yeah I left with nothing But the thought youd be there too Looking for you... Yeah I left with nothing Nothing but the thought of you... I went wandering
