Capo 2

                 G                       D  
It’s been a hard winter, nothing much to show
      Bm                G                       D
We’ve worn ourselves as thin as the white lines down below
         G                      Bm
It ain’t so bad ridin’ with the wind
            G                   A                     D
Cause there ain’t no cure for a heart that just won’t mend


Chorus:
          Bm     G                D
The day I let go is the day I was set free
        F#m                 G                   A
Now I’m rollin’ around from town to town like a tumbleweed
               Bm        G           D        G
I go where the wind blows across the prairie
             D       A        G       D    G                  D 
Yeah there’s no one around to hold me down, I’m a tumbleweed



Been a few friends along my way
Where this old Jack Rabbit is full of bad habits and raisin cane
Then there’s farmer Wolf who took Jack’s life
He says it just ain’t right to steal your best friends wife


Chorus


Bridge:
          G                           Bm
I’ve seen dust devils fly just like a ghost in the sky
        D                         A
And the healing power of a desert rain
       G                      Bm  
Yeah I know where I belong is riding on this breeze
D                                   A
That’s the only thing that keeps me sane


You’d have to be crazy to try to hold on to
What we can’t get back no matter what we do
So I’ve made my peace but there’s no guarantees
‘Cept the love you get is equal to the love you receive

Chorus

I’m just rollin’ around from town to town, I’m a tumbleweed
