Verse:
G                        C          G
I've been traveling on a boat and a plane
     D/f#     G           D/f#      G
In a car on a bike with a bus and a train
G                C         G
Traveling there, traveling here
D/f#  G       D/f#  G
Everywhere in every gear

Chorus:
    C  G       D       G
But oh Lord we pay the price
         F/c         C                          D
With the spin of the wheel with the roll of the dice
C  G        D        G
Ah yeah you pay your fare
           Bb                      F/c
And if you don't know where you're going
    C                  G
Any road will take you there

    G                    C               G
And I've been traveling through the dirt and the grime
         D/f#       G                  D/f#        G
From the past to the future through the space and the time
G             C           G
Traveling deep beneath the waves
 D/f#       G          D/f#       G
In watery grottoes and mountainous caves

   C  G     D         G
But oh Lord we've got to fight
         F/C             C              D
With the thoughts in the head with the dark and the light
C   G      D       G
No use to stop and stare
       Bb                F/C
And if you don't know where you're going
  C               G
Any road will take you there

G                     C      G
I've been traveling on a wing and a prayer
      D/f#       G           D/f#     G
By the skin of my teeth by the breadth of a hair
G            C          G
Traveling where the four winds blow
D/f#     G                D/f#            G
With the sun on my face - in the ice and the snow

C       G     D     G
But oooeeee it's a game
   F/C          C                D
Sometimes you're cool, sometimes you're lame
C   G    D      G
Ah yeah it's somewhere
         Bb              F/C
And if you don't know where you're going
   C              G
Any road will take you there

G                 C     G
I keep travelling around the bend
        D/f#   G        D/f#      G
There was no beginning, there is no end
G           C       G
It wasn't born and never dies
     D/f#     G       D/f#      G
There are no edges, there is no size
C    G        D        G
Oh yeah, you just don't win
  F/C       C              D
It's so far out - the way out is in
C       G       D      G
Bow to God and call him Sir
