* OPTIONAL: There is also a little riff played before the chorus (leading into *Riff1)
by a second guitar, but its just C and Cadd9 picking only one or 2 strings at a time.
again... listen to the song for the timing. its easy enough to play with one guitar and
it sounds good.

Verse 1:
C F C
Roadsinger came to town; long cape and hat.
C G C G C Cadd9 C
People stood and stared, then closed their doors, as he passed.
C F C
He strolled the empty street; kids banged on tin cans.
C G C G C Cadd9 C *Riff1
Then the panting dogs began to bark, as the roadsinger sang.
Chorus 1:
Am G D F C
Where do you go? Oh, where do you go? when hearts are closed
F Am *G-Riff G
When a friend becomes a stranger, nobody wants to know.
Am G D F C
Where do you go, where do you go, when the world turns dark,
F Am G F C Cadd9 C

And the light of truth is blown out, and the roads are blocked?
Verse 2:
C F C
He stopped by a store, between the barrels and sacks,
C G C G C Cadd9 C
A child's face peeped out and gave a smile, and ran back.
C F C
Behind a misty glass, on a window-pane,
C G C G C Cadd9 C *Riff1
A little finger drew a perfect heart, and a name.
Chorus 2:
Am G D F C
Where do you go, where do you go, in a world filled with fright,
F Am *G-Riff G
Only a song to warm you, through the night?
Am G D F C
Where do you go, where do you go, after lies are told,
F Am G F C Cadd9 C
And the light of truth is blown out, and the night is cold?
Interlude: (Humming and slide guitar)
C, F, C
C G C G, C Cadd9 C
C, F, C
C G C G, C Cadd9 C
Verse 3:
C F C
Roadsinger rode on, to another land,
C G C G C Cadd9 C
Though the people spoke a different tongue, they'd understand
C F C
They showed him how to share, and took him by the hand,
C G C G C Cadd9 C *Riff1
Showed him the path to Heaven, through the desert sand.
Chorus 3:
Am G D F C
Where do you go, where do you go, to find happiness,
F Am *G-Riff G
In a world filled with hatred... and tears.
Am G D F C
Where do you go, where do you go, if no one cares,
F Am G F C Cadd9 C
And everybody's lost, Looking for theirs.
