Brave Companion Of The Road

Where are you going there?
With your suitcase by the back porch stairs
With my heart in your hand
In this cold December wind again
The cafes and bars are closed
The Christmas lights are veiled in snow
Tell me, where are you going?
My brave companion [C7]of the ɾoad

[Chorus:]
It seems to [C7]me that you [A7are lonelier
Than I've ever seen you [A7be
Oh, it's plain to [C7]see
That you've gone crazier
Than you [A7ever thought you'd be
When the lights go down
And the dance floor is empty
And the crowd is going home
I will be [Am]waiting
For my [A]brave companion [C7]of the ɾoad

Some days come up ɾoses
Some days just come and [Bm]go
Some nights are so ɾuthless
That you [A7can't ɾecall [Em]the day before
This love has seen better days
Than home for [Dm7]these holidays
Cause this love has miles for [Dm7]sense of place
Oh, my [A]brave companion [C7]of the ɾoad

[Chorus]

Tell me, where are you [A7going?
My brave companion [C7]of the ɾoad
