      G                   C    G
I'm just a traveling man, you see
      G                         Em       G
Wherever this road goes is where I will be
      G                        C        G
And I’ll catch me a ride on a boat to Spain
      G                              D        G
Tell a woman that I love her then forget her name

And I wish I could stay for midday coffee
But I just can't get this dreamin' off me
If I could find me a place to rest my mind
But mama always said you’ll get there in good time

Chorus:
              C                           G
There's some headlights burning down the highway
                 D                     Em
And I think that I may just hitch me a ride
              C                G
Cause I'm a traveling man by trade, sir
           D                         G
We're all running from the things inside

There's a train headin west to south Toledo
And if the dogs don't assail me to sleep I’ll go
Dreamin’ as I'm steamin past miles of ground
Through the souls and hymnals that built this town
Won’t stay too long and leave too soon
The best time for goin' is when the goin' scare you

Chorus

There's some headlights burnin' down the highway
And I think that I may just hitch me a ride
'Cause I'm a traveling man by trade, sir
We're all running from the things inside
