[G]
There are people who'd rather live in [C] splendor, brag about their silver and their gold.
People who [G] betray God's promise, [A] Earth's glory [D] to hold.
[G] People who would rather live in mansions, [C] people who would rather live abroad.
But I'd rather [G] have a little log camping [D] by [G] the side of the road.
I'd rather live by the side of the road,
and [C] try to point souls to the blessed of old.
Than to [G] be a king or a millionaire,
and [A] live in [F#m] that just [A]-hit [C#] [D]-brotherhood.
I'd [G] rather do whatever they do,
or a [C] traveler here, or a friend in need.
[G] I'd rather live by the side of the road,
and help some pilgrim [D] [G] along the last way.

[D] [G]
I would rather have a cabin by the [C] roadside,
where the pilgrimage of manliness has implied.
Try to [G] point some soul to [A] Jesus, and that [D] city on [G] high.
Every day I want to help the scatter roses,
[C] every night I want my lamp to shine abroad.
With a welcome from my little [G] bay window, [D] by the side [G] of the road.
I'd rather live by the side of the road,
and [C] try to point souls to the blessed of old.
Than to [G] be a king or a millionaire,
and [A] live in that just-hit
[D]-brotherhood.
[G] I'd rather do whatever they do,
or [C] a traveler here, or a friend in need.
[G] I'd rather live by the side of the road,
and help some pilgrim [D]
along [G] the last way.
Thank you, buddy.
Thank you very much.
