Traveling Alone
Recorded by Jason Isbell
Album: Southeastern (2013)

(No Capo)

Intro.:  (Bm) x 4 bars

(Bm) Mountains rough this (A)time of (G)year, close the (D)highway down
They don't (A)warn the town
(Bm) And I've been fighting (A)second (G)gear for fifteen (D)miles or so
Trying to beat the (A)angry snow

(Pre-Chorus)
(F#m) And I know every town worth (Em)passing through
But what good does (D)knowing do with no one to (A)show it to

(Chorus)
And I've grown (D)tired of traveling alone, (A)tired of traveling alone
I've grown (Bm)tired of traveling alone, (A)won't you ride (G) with me?
I've grown (D)tired of traveling alone, (A)tired of traveling alone
I've grown (Bm)tired of traveling alone, (A)won't you ride (G) with me?
(A)Won't you ride, (D) won't you (Bm)ride? (A)

(Bm) I quit talking (A)to my-(G)self
Listening to the (D)radio, long, long (A) time ago
(Bm) Damn near strangled (A)by my (G)appetite
Ybor City on a (D)Friday night couldn't even (A)stand up right

(F#m) So high the street girls wouldn't (Em)take my pay
They said come see me on a (D)better day, she just (A)danced away

Repeat Chorus

(Bridge)
(Bb)Painting the outside lane I'm tired of answering (C7)to my-(D)-self
(Bb)Hard like the rebuilt part I don't know how much (C7)it's got (D) left
How much it's got (A)left
