[Verse 1]
A
Well a steel wheel rides a steel rail
A
And a rubber wheel rides a road
A
Ground underneath my boot heals
A
Burns right through my soul
D A
Right through my weary soul
[Verse 2]
A
Wilflower travels on a (?) wind
A
Through a field of broken dreams
A
Your memory flies through my restless heart
D A
On fallen angels wings
[Chorus]
D A
And I wish I could have stayed
D A
I wish I could have changed
A
But a ramblin’ man is a ramblin’ man
D A
By any other name
D A
By any other name
[Instrumental]
A D A
[Verse 3]
A
Some men are made to plant their feet
A
And stay right-a where they are
A
Some build their homes on the (shifting sands?)
A
Beneath the shooting stars
D A
Some bright and shining star
[Verse 4]
A
A woman like you was born to love
A
With a kind and gentle hand
A
But I was born a rolling stone
D A
And I’ll die a ramblin’ man
[Chorus]
D A
And I wish I could have stayed
D A
I wish I could have changed
A
But a ramblin’ man is a ramblin’ man
D A
By any other name
D A
By any other name
[Instrumental]
A D A D A D
A D A D A
[Verse 5]
A
Some day you may forgive me
A
For leaving you all alone
A
But I can’t deny the wanderlust
A
And the call of the open road
D A
Down on the open road
[Chorus]
D A
And I wish I could have stayed
D A
I wish I could have changed
A
But a ramblin’ man is a ramblin’ man
D A
By any other name
D A
By any other name
[Instrumental]
D A D A D A D A
D A D A D A D A
[Chorus]
D A
And I wish I could have stayed
D A
I wish I could have changed
A
But a ramblin’ man is a ramblin’ man
D A
By any other name
D A
By any other name
[Outro]
A
Well a ramblin’ man is a ramblin’ man is a ramblin’ ramblin’ man
