My Traveling Star

Biografia:

James Vernon Taylor (12 de março de 1948, em Belmont, Massachusetts) é um músico norte-americano de folk rock.

Começou sua carreira no final dos anos 60, na onda, então popular, do soft-rock americano. Como não conseguia espaço em seu próprio país, foi tentar a sorte na Inglaterra, sendo um dos primeiros contratados da gravadora dos Beatles, a Apple Records. Mas as gravações que realizou no período 68/69 não chamaram a atenção e ele voltou para os EUA.

Lyrics:

B G#m7
Watch my back and light my way
C#m7 E/F#
My traveling star, my traveling star
B G#m7
Watch over all of those born St. Christopher's Day
C#m7 E/F# Gdim
Old road dog, young runaway
G#m7 F#m7 A/B
They hunger for home but they cannot stay
E A7
They wait by the door
G#m7
They stand and they stare
Fdim E/F#
They're already out of there

They're already out of there

B G#m7
My daddy used to ride the rails
C#m7 E/F#
So they say, so they say
B G#m7
Soft as smoke and as tough as nails
C#m7 E/F# Gdim
Boxcar Jones, old walking man
G#m7 Fm7b5 F#m7 A/B
Coming back home was like going to jail
E A7 G#m7
The sheets and the blankets and babies and all
Fdim E/F#
No he never did come back home
Gdim
Never that I recall

G#m7 C#/D# G#m7
Nevermind the wind
C#/D# Emaj7
Nevermind the rain
F# B
Nevermind the road
A#m7
leading home again
G#m7 Fm7b5 F#m7
Never asking why
B7
Never knowing when
E D#m7 C#m7
Every now and then
E/F#
There he goes again

Interlude: B G#m7 C#m7 E/F#
B G#m E D#m7 C#m7 E/F#

B G#m7
She had a cat and a dog named Blue
C#m7 E/F#
My traveling star, my traveling star
B G#m7
A big old stove and a fireplace, too
C#m7 E/F# Gdim
Old road dog, young runaway
G#m7 F#m7 A/B
She told me she loved me like it was true
E A7
I knew I should stay
G#m7
I knew I would go
Fdim E/F#
Run run run away
Gdim
Run run run away, boy

G#m7 C#/D# G#m7
Run before the wind
C#/D# Emaj7
Run before the rain
F#
Over yonder hill
B A#m7
Just around the bend
G#m7 Fm7b5 F#m7
Never knowing why
B7
Never knowing when
E D#m7 C#m7
Every now and then
E/F#
There you go again

B G#m7
Tie me up and hold me down
C#m7 E/F#
Oh, my traveling star
B G#m7
Bury my feet down in the ground
C#m7 E/F# Gdim
Oh, old road dog
G#m7 Fm7b5 F#m7 A/B
Claim my name from the lost and found
E A7 G#m7
And let me believe this is where I belong
Fdim E/F#
Shame on me for sure

For one more highway song

B G#m7

C#m7 E/F#
My traveling star, My traveling star

B G#m

E B/D# C#m7 E/F# B
