[C]
A million miles [G] are [C] vagabond wheels [Am] clocked up beneath the [C] clouds.
[G] They're counting down [C] to show time [F]
when [C] we do it for real with the [F] crowds.
[G] Their miles are owing, [C] but they don't come [F] for free, [C] and they don't give you any [F] for paying.
[C] But if it's all [G] for nothing, [C]
all the road [Am] to running is been [C] there, you bet.
The rim shots come down [G] like cannon
[C] [Am] fire and flung [F]
off [C] a wall.
There's [G] a man in every [C] corner,
[F] [C] and each one is giving his [F] all.
[C] [G] This is my piping, [C] this is my [F] drum, so [C] you never will hear me [F] complain.
[C] And if it's all [G] for nothing, [C] all the [Am] road to running [F] is been [C] there, you bet.
[F] All the [G] road to running.
[F] [C] All the road to running.
Well, if you're inclined to [G] go up on [C] the wall, it can [Am]
only be [C] fast and high.
[G] Those who don't like [C] the danger [F] soon [C] find something different [F] to try.
[C] [G] When there's only [C] a ring in [F] your ears [C] and an echo down memory [F]
lane.
[C]
And if it's all [G] for nothing, [C] all [Am] the road to running [F] is [C] been there, you know, you bet.
[F] All [G] the road to running.
[F] All [C] the road to running.
[F] All the [G] road to running.
[C] All the road to running.
The show's packing up, [G] I sit [C] and watch [Am] the car [C] leave in time.
[G] And there's no pretending [C]
I'm [F] not a fool [C] for riding around [F] and around.
[C] Like [G] the pictures you keep [C] of your old [F] wall of death, [C] you showed me one time on [F] a plane.
[C]
But if it's all [G] for nothing, [C] all [Am] the road to running [F] is [C] been in vain.
I've a million miles [G] of [C] vagabond sky [Am] clocked up above [C] the clouds.
[G] And I'm still here, man, [C] for the roaming, [F] for [C] as long as there's roaming [F] allowed.
[G]
There'll be a rider [C] and there'll [F] be a wall as [C]
long as the dreamer [F]
remains.
[C]
And if it's [G] all for nothing, [C] all the [Am] road to running [F] is [C] been in vain.
[F] All the [G] road to running.
[F] All [C] the road to running.
[F] All [G] the road to running.
[F] All the road [C] to running.
All [F] the [G] road to running.
[F] [C] All the road to running.
All the [G] road to running.
[F] All [C] the road to running
