And made off with our guitars in the van

Out on the stage

In a travelin' band

We heard our song on the radio

Along with the "Gambler" we hit the road

All across the USA

We were gypsies on parade

We were all about three
chords and the truth

We wrote our songs on the bus,
in the booth

Some go slow like "Used to Blue"

When the lights went down

We could hear the crowd

In a travelin' band

Fame and fortune don't mean much

Without someone to hold
and someone to touch
A
Some wives left, some stayed on
G
So who do you love when the beat
goes on
D
Now we're 27 years
and a million miles
Bm
Shifting gears and changing styles
A
We said goodbye to old DC
G
Now it's Hobie, Shayne

Em
A
And when "The Race is On"

They all sing along
D
Now I'd like to take this
time to thank you
Bm
Though it's been a long
and winding road
A
I count my blessings when
G
I see those faces
D
And I look down at this
A
G
guitar in my hand
D
And I take my place
A
On the stage
G
In a travelin' band
D
I'm in a travelin' band
