The Plainsman(Chords)

	        




Intro: C, F, G, F, C 

   C                          F 
I come from the moor and the mountain 
          G    F          C 
From the waterfall and streams 
                         F         C 
I turned me back on the mountain track 
                   Am 
I'm walking in a dream 
     C         F   C 
And every new horizon 
                    Am 
To me it seems the same 
     C               F 
And everywhere look old and bad 
       G         F        C   
While travelling on the plain 

C, F, G, F, C 

Thus no one rides this road with me 
A plainsman rides alone 
No welcome waits by a city gate 
No voice to call me home 
Alone I came into this place 
And that is how I will go 
And all I learn is the season's turn 
It's all I need to know 

Oh, the world is hung with silver tongues 
With good advice to give 
If you can't show me how to die 
Don't tell me how to live 
The plainsman's song, though it's seldom long 
It's more than meets the ear 
And all I believe is the falling leaves 
At the turning of the year
