Tabbed by guitaristu

First single off the new album. Enjoy.

Just standard open chords with different bassnotes illustrated by /.
Only exception is the /G# chord which I suspect Frank plays as:


/G# : 40020x


[Chorus]
Am C
to the east to the east
G /G# Am
the road beneath my feet
Am/G Am C
to the west to the west
G /G# Am
i havent got there yet
Am/B C G
and to the north to the north
Fmaj7 C
never to be caught
Fmaj7 C
to the south to the south
G /G# Am
my time is running out

Am - bass /F /G /A /C /B /A


[Verse]
Am Em Fmaj7 G
ever since my childhood i've been scared i've been afraid
C G Fmaj7 D/F#
of being trapped by circumstance and staying in one place
Am Em Fmaj7 G
so i always keep a small bag full of clothes carefully stored
C G Fmaj7 E Am
somewhere secret somewhere safe and somewhere close to the door

Am Em Fmaj7 G
well ive travelled many countries ive washed my feet in many seas
C G Fmaj7 D/F#
ive drunk with drifters in vienna and with punks in old dc
Am Em Fmaj7 G
and ive driven across deserts driven by the irony
C G Fmaj7 E Am
that only being shackled to the the road could ever i be free


[Chorus]
Am C
to the east to the east
G /G# Am
the road beneath my feet
Am/G Am C
to the west to the west
G /G# Am
i havent got there yet
Am/B C G
and to the north to the north
Fmaj7 C
never to be caught
Fmaj7 C
to the south to the south
G /G# Am
my time is running out

Am - bass /F /G /A /C /B /A


[Verse]
Am Em Fmaj7 G
I've felt old before my time but now i keep the age away
C G Fmaj7 D/F#
by burning up the miles and yeah by filling up my days
Am Em Fmaj7 G
and the nights a thousand nights ive played and a thousand more to go
C G Fmaj7 E Am
before i take a breath and steal myself for the next one thousand shows


[Chorus]
Am C
to the east to the east
G /G# Am
the road beneath my feet
Am/G Am C
to the west to the west
G /G# Am
i havent got there yet
Am/B C G
and to the north to the north
Fmaj7 C
never to be caught
Fmaj7 C
to the south to the south
G /G# Am
my time is running out


[Instrumental Bit]
Am G F G C G F D/F# x2


[Bridge]
Am G F G
yes so saddle up your horses now and keep your powder dry
C G
cause the truth is you wont be here long
F G
yeah soon your gonna die
Am G F G
to the heart to the heart theres no time for you to waste
C G
you wont find your precious answers now
Fmaj7 D/F#
by staying in one place
Fmaj7 D/F# G /G#
yeah by giving up the chase


[Chorus]
Am C
to the east to the east
G /G# Am
the road beneath my feet
Am/G Am C
to the west to the west
G /G# Am
i havent got there yet
Am/B C G
and to the north to the north
Fmaj7 C
well i never will be caught
Fmaj7 C
to the south to the south
G /G# Am
my time is running out
Fmaj7 C
to the south to the south
G /G# Am
my time is running out

Fmaj7 C
to the south to the south
G /G# Am
my time is running out
