FOLLOW YOUR ROAD
by Pauline Wilson
Intro: C-C7/E-F-Bb7-Am-C-F-Em- Dm-G
C7/E creates a better tone than a plain Em but you may use it interchangeably
I.
C CM7
So many roads that seem to lead down to the sea,
Gm7 C7 F Bb
I wonder which road will be the right one for me.
C CM7
Others may fall away, dead ending left and right.
Gm C7 FM7-Em-Dm ->D
But there is this one road that journeys far out of sight.
Chorus I:
Am Gm - C7
Have you wondered where your road will lead you?
FM7
Maybe to a bright day of sunshine,
Bb7
or a starry night in heaven.
Am Gm - C7
Or it might be you're afraid to go, afraid to go,
F Em
But you've got to follow your road,
Dm G C
or you'll never know, never know.
(Do Intro Chords) C-C7/E-F-Bb-Am-C-F-Em- Dm-G
II.
C CM7
We are all but travelers living in a foreign land,
Gm7 C7 F Bb7
Just trying to find our way best as we can.
C CM7
Looking for an answer, trying to find some light
Gm C7
And though we have journeyed far,
F Em Dm ->D
it's not quite far enough..

Am Gm - C7
Have you wondered where your road will lead you
FM7 Bb
Maybe to a song that needs singing, or a summer rain
Am Gm - C7
Or it might be you're afraid to go, afraid to go,
F Em Dm
But you've got to follow your road, or you'll never know.
Am/G D/F#
You've got to follow your road, follow your road, follow your road.
F Bb
You've got to follow your road, follow your road, follow your road.
Am Gm-C7
You've got to follow your road, follow your road, follow your road.

And maybe someday your road will take you far away.
