Verse 1
Am 
I was born a restless man,
E 
Am 
I do my living where I can
E 
Am 
And any road or highway is my home
Dm 
Here today and gone tomorrow,
Am 
keeping just ahead of sorrow
E 
Am 
Knowing I was born to die alone
Left my home when I was ten to
E 
try to spread my wings
Am 
And then to learn about some
things I didn't know
Dm 
Labor crews and gandhi dancers
Am 
Taught me questions without answers
E 
Am 
I'll learn less the farther on I go
E 
Hear the sea
My destiny is calling me
Am 
Dm 
Callin' me away to travel on
E 
Am 
The day I die, I know that I will be alone
E 
I go with the memory of the many
-flavored wine of love
Am 
I've had the chance to taste
but never owned
Dm 
Though I know there's
no denying
Am 
Love's a pleasant way of dying
E 
Am 
I  believe I'm born to die alone
Nights I've drifted on the river
E 
Am 
Gazing at the stars so far above
And in the dark that is their home
Dm 
Life is like a lonely river
Am 
Drifting on it into never
E 
Am 
And like every star I'm alone
E 
Here the sea of my destiny is calling me,
Am 
Dm 
E 
calling me away to travel on, the day I die
Am 
I know that I will be alone.
