Chorus 

(0.15 - 0.34) 
                      Em 
Cause I?m a travelling man, 

         C 
Where i lay my hats my home 

       D 
Don?t know where i am going 

          Am 
But Imma get there on my own.. 

             Em 
A travelling man, 

        C 
Where i lay my hats my home 

       D 
Don?t know where i am going 

           Am 
But Imma? get there on my own 



SINGING VERSE 

(0.35 - 1.15) 

                 Em 
Its just another venue 


another live show, a different city with places to go 

                                 C 
Imma keep on doing this, til the day that I die 

        Em 
In this life, that doesn't slow down 


We all get lost just waiting to be found 

                          
Imma keep my head held, high to the sky 

         Em 
Feel the pressure to succeed,  


I wasn't going anywhere til music found me 

                             C 
Never gonna turn green, with envy and greed 

       Em 
I'm an old man, the rules are there to be written 


Sometimes they push me down sometimes I feel like quitting, 


but I'm never gonna give this up, cause this is my life 


Chorus 

(1.16 - 1.35) 

                      Em 
Cause I?m a travelling man, 

         C 
Where i lay my hats my home 

       D 
Don?t know where i am going 

         Am 
But Imma get there on my own.. 

             Em 
A travelling man, 

        C 
Where i lay my hats my home 

       D 
Don?t know where i am going 

         Am 
But Imma get there on my own.. 




RAP VERSE 

(1.36 - 2.15) 

                              Em 
Well we've been chewed up and spit out 


They say we?re doing something new now 


Everybody wants to hear this travelling bands tunes out 


From day one we were chasing the stars 

          C 
We didn't wanna be another band lazing in bars 

               Em 
We?re gazing at charts, hoping one day to be a part of it 


Made a ton of progress we've only started yeah 


We'd mad melodies, jamming on chairs 

            C 
Hasn't been since last march that we paid for some beers 

        Em 
Forward moving failures, ah sure were not choosing 


Find us on the road at live shows or lay boozing 


Straight cruising were ready to rock 

          C 
giving it all on the stage until we're ready to drop 

        Em 
n these labels said we were just too different 


Dublin hip hop would never work there's something missing n 


the accent is too deep its too strong, but now most of them are singing along 


Chorus 

(2.15 - 2.35) 

                      Em 
Cause I?m a travelling man, 

         C 
Where i lay my hats my home 

       D 
Don?t know where i am going 

          Am 
But Imma get there on my own 

             Em 
A travelling man, 

        C 
Where i lay my hats my home 

       D 
Don?t know where i am going 

           Am 
But Imma get there on my own
