Em G

Where the road is dark, and the seed is sowed,

Em G

Where the gun is cocked, and the bullet's cold,

Em D Em D

Where the miles are marked in blood and gold,

C D Em

I'll meet you further on, up the road,

Em G

Got on my dead man's suit, and my smilin' skull ring,

Em G

My lucky graveyard boots, and a song to sing

Em D Em D

I got a song to sing, to keep me out of the cold

C D Em

And I'll meet you further on, up the road,

D Em

Further on up the road, further on up the road,

Em G

Where the way is dark and the night is cold,

Em D Em D

One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know,

C D Em

And I'll meet you further on, up the road,

Guitar solo over: Em G x2 Em D x2 C

Em (basically the verse)

Em G

Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time,

Em G

Searchin through the dust, lookin' for a sign,

D Em

If there's a light up ahead, well brother I don't know,

Em B

But I got this fever, burnin' in my soul,

Em D Em D

So let's take the good times, as they go,

C D Em

And I'll meet you further on, up the road,

G Em

Further on up the road, further on up the road,

G Em

Further on up the road, further on up the road,

Em D Em D

One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know,

C D Em

And I'll meet you further on, up the road,

Em D Em D

One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know,

C D Em

And I'll meet you further on, up the road,
