D                 C            Em                  D  F/G
I am but a boy, though I own a heart as old as coal.
D                C                 Em                 D
Searching for something in the forests where I stroll.
D        C                 Em             D
I am out here, cause I got nowhere to go.
D        C                 Em                                   D
The open air, and the trees are known to soothe the poorest soul.

[Verse 1]
D         C                      Em               D
I run and hide to sleep under an Appalachian Moon;
D            C          Em                    D      F/G
pistol by my side I got nothing left to lose.
D        C           Em            D   F/G
Left my heart in the city, for you
D        C                 Em                  D   F/G
but you killed it, when you wouldn't say 'I Do'.

[Chorus]
D         C              Em                    D
You better love me, 'else I'll be leaving soon.
D         C              Em                           D      F/G
You better love me, before I leave you with this tune.
D         C                 Em                    D
You better love me, cause I won't be back again.
D        C                 Em                        D   F/G
& I know you won't find a better rogue & ramblin' man.
 
[Verse 2]
D         C              Em                       D
I am the gentle warmth of the Sun's morning gleam;
D         C              Em                      D
I am the cool comfort of a cold mountain stream;
D        C                 Em                  D
I am the Wolf's eye, in the dead of the night;
D        C                 Em            D
I am the tip of the arrow in mid-flight.

[Outro]
D          G            F
Where do I roam? Nobody knows.
D         G                   F
She don't care so I'm getting close.
D         G             F
I'll keep walking these hills...
D         G               F
Ain't got nowhere else to go.

I'll keep walking these hills...
D         G               F
Ain't got nowhere else to go.
