The run you hear is a bass walkdown from C to G – you are mainly moving 
the fingering on the bass string, hence, the C/B – C/A – C/G, etc.


Intro chords:
G  C  G  C


      G       C          G       C
I'm a drifter, a driftin drifter
C   C/B  C/A   C/G  C    C/B  C/A  C/G  G
Got no   place to   call my   own  no   more

      G       C          G       C
I'm a wonderer, a wonderin wonderer
C   C/B  C/A   C/G  C    C/B  C/A  C/G  G
Got no   one   to   call my   own  no   more


Chorus:
F      C          G
Got no strings to tie me down
F      C        G
Got no cause to hang around
     F                                   G
What difference does it make which way I go
       F     C       G  
Got an empty feeling down inside 
F       C       G
Still I need to stay alive 
    F                                   D
And who can tell what waits beyond this road


I'm a drifter, a driftin drifter
Got no one to call my own no more

Banjo instrumental

Chorus

I'm a drifter, a driftin drifter
Got no one to call my own no more
