Chords

Bm                            F#7
I was born a restless man, I do my livin' where I can

    Bm
And any road or highway is my home

Em                             Bm
Here today and gone tomorrow, keeping just ahead of sorrow

F#7                         Bm
Knowing I was born to die alone

Bm                              F#7
Left my home when I was ten to try to spread my wings and then

Bm
Learn about some things I didn't know

Em                                Bm
Labor cruises and gangly dancers taught me questions without answers

F#7           Bm
I (???) on I go

Bm       F#7                                       Bm
Hear the sea in my destiny is calling me, calling me away

          Em
To travel on

          F#7                          Bm
The day I die I know that I will be alone

Bm                            F#7
I go with the memory of the many flavored wine of love

Bm
I've had the chance to taste but never own

Em                                Bm
Though I know there's no denying, love's a pleasant way of dyin'

          F#7                          Bm
I believe I'm born to die alone

Bm                            F#7
Nights I drifted on the river,gazing at the stars so far above

Bm
In the dark that is their home

Em                                Bm
Life is like a lonely river driftin' on into never

          F#7                          Bm
And like every star I'm alone

Bm       F#7                                       Bm
Hear the sea in my destiny is calling me, calling me away

          Em
To travel on

          F#7                          Bm
The day I die I know that I will be alone
