[Verse 1]
D
The day's been a while fadingSeems like we have slowed
G My eyes are getting weary D Can barely see the road
Been a while since we left behind the city lights
A D G A There's just a line winding through the night
[Verse 2]
D
Yesterday's lie scatteredLike broken swords and shields
G Like the used up shells and bullets D On a hundred battlefields D When, I think of all the close calls
Both sides of love and death
A D Sometimes I can hardly get my breath
[Chorus]
G A D But I'll follow the ribbon anyhow G I'll follow the ribbon A That's all right for now D C Up in the high country G D G Or down where the river flows
Wherever it goes
D G D G Em G D G D G

[Bridge]
G Don't care if they like it F#m Don't care if they don't G Never did much care about F#m If they will or won't G If all you want to know is acorns F#m Rootin' me a patch of earth E7 What can you praise A That's really any worth
[Verse 3]
D
I'm just living with the ringingOf tomorrow's ancient rhymes
G The road ahead may be shorter D Than the one we left behind D If there's whiskey in the bottle
Leave some for me
A D I'll get to it, eventually
[Chorus]
G I'll follow the ribbon A D By the cold lagoon G Follow the ribbon A Under the helpless moon D C Winding through the dark hills G D G Where a million stars a-falls D Wherever it goes
D G D G Em G D G D G
