Ladies and gentlemen, our [B] musical director, [E] Chris Jones.
[B]
Thank you.
[N] [Abm] I just want to have the pleasure of recording with Tom T.
It's so convenient to have him sing his verse.
[D]
[A] It's called The Man on the Side of the [D] Road.
Ponder that thing [G] around, near the small [D] country town
A load of work was [A] shipping my home
[D] I sit on my drink [G] and while I'm [D] pausing to think
Saw the man on the side of the road
Like a dog on the stray, [G] he could wander [D] all day
With no one around him to care
He didn't seem lost, [G] he didn't [D] seem lost
Where ever he was, he was there
The [G] man on the [D] side of the road
Steadily [A] shouldering his load
[D] Untouched by the [G] strife on the highways [D] of life
The man on the side of the road
[A] [D] [G]
[D]
Well he sat on the ground [G] with the craters [D] he'd found
And spread them all out on the [A] grass
[D] He had no care for [G] the lamps and [D] the stairs
Or the pickups [A] and cars that run
[D] But he had an old sign that was weathered with time
Jesus is coming, he [A] said
[D] Well he really didn't need it, I don't think he could read it
But the letters were pretty in red
[G]
[D] Steadily [A] shouldering his load
[D] And I'm thinking of a way [G] I can live [D] out my days
Like the man on the side of the road
