Intro: C  Gsus2  Eb/G  Gsus2 

verse 1: 
       C       
All is well, I've made my peace where highways never end  
                        Dm            G 
Yesterday's a memory, today is just a friend  
        C             F           D           G 
For the mountains and Maryann are calling me again  
        C              F         C 
And the red pines will bow their heads  
                   F    C 
The rivers and the watersheds  
     D             G             C 
Will swallow up my tears, all is well 


verse 2: 

I left the cold mid-western towns behind  
                                       Dm             G 
There's a semi up the road ahead, I'll take him in my time  
        C           F                D           G 
For the hot blooded mountain love is calling me again  
        C            F     C 
And the vagabond within me cries 
                        F       C 
The wind and rain might burn my eyes  
    D                G   
But I won't feel the pain
