Intro: Amaj7.. ...|D'.. ...|D'.. ...| D' Amaj7 D' C Trav'ling lady, stay awhile D' Amaj7 D' Until the night is over D' Amaj7 D' C I'm just a station on your way D' Amaj7 D' I know I'm not your lover
D'/a Am7 Well I lived with a child of snow D'/a Am7 When I was a soldier D'/a Am7 And I fought every man for her D'/a Am7 D' Until the nights grew colder
She used to wear her hair like you Except when she was sleeping And then she'd weave it on a loom Of smoke and gold and breathing
And why are you so quiet now Standing there in the doorway? You chose your journey long before You came upon this highway
Trav'ling lady, stay awhile Until the night is over I'm just a station on your way I know I'm not your lover
