                    Em                                 C              

    When he comes to town and you see his face,

                   Em                              A

    and you think you might like to take his place.

      C                                            Bm                                                                                        

    Something keeps him drifting miles and miles away,

     Am                                      D

    searching for the songs to play.

                                          

                  Am                  E                   C                  D

                  Am                     E

                        C                         D                             E       - Am

    and some words to call your own and take them home.

    Something keeps him moving, but no one seems to know,

       Am                                 D                           

    what it is that makes him go.

                                                              

                  Am                    E                      C                       D

    Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim,

            G                     D                    Em                         E

    the voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin.

                Am                     E

    But he never seems to notice he's,

            C                 D                       E

    just got to find another place to play.
