GOIN' DOWN THE ROAD

Singing Sam

(D)Goin' down the (Bm)road
Lookin' for a (G)way to (A)travel,
Askin' (D)questions of (Bm)every(G)body I (A)see,
Askin' (D)questions of (Bm)people
Who (G)don't know the (A)answer,
(G)Tossed like a (A)ship on a (G)trou(A)bled (D)sea.

I (D)look around an' I (Bm)see
People (G)hating each (A)other.
They say (D)climbin' up a (Bm)ladder
Of suc(G)cess is what to (A)do.
But they (D)don't know what to (Bm)say
When their (G)kids get in (A)trouble.
They're too (G)hung up in them(A)selves
To love (G)Billy (A)or (D)Sue.

We're makin' (D)rockets, guns, church (Bm)buildings,
And a (G)new chamber of (A)commerce,
And last (D)week we went to (Bm)school
For the (G)PT(A)A.
But the (D)teacher said that (Bm)Billy was
(G)Havin' some (A)problems,
And (G)Sue was caught (A)smokin' mari(G)juana (A)to(D)day.
(Em)-(C)-(G)-(D) [Twice]

I (D)heard about this (Bm)war
We were (G)fightin' for our (A)freedom,
And they (D)say that killin' (Bm)people
Is the (G)only (A)way.
But I'm (D)sure that if (Bm)everyone
Would (G)just read their (A)Bible,
Then they'd (G)find out that (A)Jesus
Had some (G)other (A)things to (D)say.

I know the (D)answer's not
(Bm)In a (G)big pile of (A)money,
A new (D)car, a pretty (Bm)girl,
Or a (G)fancy diamond (A)ring.
I need (D)somethin' for (Bm)real
That an (G)earthquake can't (A)bother,
Somethin' (G)inside my (A)soul
That can (G)set (A)me (D)free.
I hear (D)lotsa' people (Bm)talkin'
And they (G)say they know the (A)answers,
But if (D)they know what they're (Bm)doin'
Why're they (G)so afraid to (A)die?
Now the (D)only thing that (Bm)I can say
That (G)really made me (A)happy,
Was when (G)I came to (A)Jesus
And He (G)eased my (A)troubled (D)mind.
