Biography:
Kate Wolf (born Kathryn Louise Allen in San Francisco, California, USA) (January 27, 1942 – December 10, 1986) was an American folk singer and songwriter.
Wolf didn't get her recording career going until the mid-'70s, by which time she was well into her thirties. Prior to emerging as a solo artist, she had headed the band Wildwood Flower (who backed her on her first two albums), and organized folk concerts and festivals in Northern California. Very much a self-starter

Did not find a listing for this, so I
sat down and figured it out.
This is also one of my favorite Kate Wolf songs.
Back Roads By: Kate Wolf
From:1976 Album..Back Roads
No capo: Key of G
Verse 1
G D Am7 D7
I'll take the backroads home through the open country side.
Am Bm C D7 G
Letting things slip by.......in drawn out time...I'll
Em Bm C
take the long way home on the backroads of this life
Am7 D7 G C
..taking time to see what goes by.
Chorus
Bdim A A7 D E
Coming and going, there's no dividing line. What you're
B C D7 G Em
headed for, someone's left behind.....And the shortest road
Bm C Am7 D7 G
ain't always the best. Sometimes let a backroad take you home
Verse 2
G D Am7 D7
A back road is so easy, it just rambles on and on.
Am Bm C D7 G
Take it or leave it,....as rolls along.
Em Bm C
Drifts through things it cannot change, and doesn't
Am7 D7 G C
even try. Wouldn't that be something for you and I.
Chorus
Bdim A A7 D E
Coming and going, there's no dividing line. What you're
B C D7 G Em
headed for, someone's left behind.....And the shortest road
Bm C Am7 D7 G
ain't always the best. Sometimes let a backroad take you home
Verse 3
G D Am7 D7
Anyplace you're bound, you'll get there someday.
Am Bm C D7 G
You're the one who chooses...what you see along the way.
Em Bm C Am7
And when the heartaches seem too much for you to bear.
D7 G C
There's a back road winding everywhere.
Chorus
Bdim A A7 D E
Coming and going, there's no dividing line. What you're
B C D7 G Em
headed for, someone's left behind.....And the shortest road
Bm C Am7 D7 G
ain't always the best. Sometimes let a backroad take you home
