lyrics

C F C G C
C F
Think I’ll get up and go to Roby
C G
Rebuild the tumbling down homestead
C F
Plant nine rows of squash behind the willow tree
C G C
Let the coyote’s lullaby rock me to bed.

Chorus
F C
I’m on my way to Roby
F G
Nothing can turn me around
F C Am
On my way to Roby
F G
Gonna lay my burden down/

F G C
On a patch of earth out west of town/

Verse 2
C F
I know I’ll find peace there cause it shimmers
C G
On the morning glory unfolding at dawn
C F
On the hawk’s wing and in midnight all a’glimmer
C G C
In the lightning bugs on the evening lawn

Lead to Verse

Verse 3
C F
So I’m packing bags because night and day
C G
I hear the wind in the sycamore
C F
While I sit in traffic under skies of gray
C G C
I hear it deep down inside my core.
Chorus 2X
