Intro: G C G C D G
[G]When I was a young boy
[C]The only things that really mattered were
[G]Making [Em]friends and having [C]fun
[G]Walkin' down that railroad track
[C]'Til you reached the river
[G]Turn around and head on back
[C]When the [D]day is [G]done
[C]Ain't it like they always say
[D]Everybody goes their own way
[G]Nobody knows, no one can [C]tell
[G]It's always been the same for me
[C]Guess it's just the way it must be
[G]Headin' [D]down that dusty [C]trail
[G]When I was a young man
[C]The only things that got me goin' were
[G]Gettin' [Em]high and chasin' [C]love
[G]Lyin' down beside my girl
[C]On the banks of the river
[G]With nothing but some mustang wine
And [C]all the [D]stars [G]above
[C]Ain't it like they always say
[D]Everybody goes their own way
[G]Nobody knows, no one can [C]tell
[G]It's always been the same for me
[C]Guess it's just the way it must be
[G]Headin' [D]down that dusty [C]trail
[G]It's a [D]twistin, turnin' [C]windin' road
[G]I get [D]lost and broken [C]down[G] [C]
[G]I'm a [D]stumbler and it [C]won't be long
[G]'Til I [D]stumble back [C]around
Solo (chords as verse except last line - C D C C D G)
[G]Since I became my own man
[C]Everything that matters to me is
[G]Making [Em]sure I'm staying [C]true
[G]To my friends and the ones I love
[C]'Til I cross that river
[G]All alone I'm movin' on
[C]Until my [D]time is [G]through
[C]Ain't it like they always say
[D]Everybody goes their own way
[G]Nobody knows, no one can [C]tell
[G]It's always been the same for me
[C]Guess it's just the way it must be
[G]It's always been the same for me
[C]Guess it's just the way it must be
[G]It's always been the same for me
[C]Guess it's just the way it must be
[G]Headin' [D]down that dusty [C]trail
