[C]
You knew I could not [Am] stay for long when you asked me [F] to come over [Dm] in the wee [G] hours of the morning.
[C] I said I [G] could not let the sunrise [Em] catch me sleeping.
[F] That is [D] why I've given [G] you fair warning.
[E] Though you might have [Am] loved me like I never ever [F] have been loved [Dm] before, your front [Em] door
is open [Am] and I've got to [G] keep on moving.
[C]
So [G] I will stay with [Am] you a while [Em] and then I'll [F] let my hitchhike [Dm] thumb take me [G] where I want
[C]
because [G] I've got to [Am] keep on searching [Em] for the dream that [F] I've been seeking [D] since I left
my [G] old home.
[E]
And who's to say but [Am] that I might be [G] back tomorrow [F] if I find there's [Dm] only sorrow [Em] you
may see me from [Am] your window [A] sill.
Next morning [G] [C] I'm a drifter [Em] and [D] I see the rain.
[G] [C] I'm a drifter [Em] and [A] I felt the pain [G] of [Am]
loneliness.
So [F] I drift from town [Em] to town [F]
searching all [Em] around [F] looking for [Em] the answer to [Dm] my sorrow.
And if the answer is you [G]
then I'll be back [C] tomorrow.
[C]
[F] [C] Let's [G] make the most of [Am] time before the break [Em] of day [F] but don't try to make [Dm] me stay if I
[G] don't want to.
[C] Because [G] I've got to keep [Am] on searching for [Em] that dream and you [F] can't find me [Dm] with the
simple [G] words I love you.
[E] But if I realize [Am] the dream that I've [C] been searching for [F] is waiting here [Dm] behind your
[Em] door then I'm a drifter [Am] today if [G] you still want me to.
I'm [C] a drifter [Em] and [A] I've seen the rain.
[G] I'm [C] a drifter [Em] and [A] I felt the pain [G] of [Am] loneliness.
So [F] I drift from town [Em] to town [F] searching all [Em] around [F] looking for [Em] the answer to [Dm] my sorrow.
And if the answer is you [G] then I'll be back [C]
[C] tomorrow.
