A                                      C      
Where the road is dark and the seed is sowed  
                 Am                      C     
Where the gun is cocked and the bullet's cold  
                    Am            G         A         
Where the miles are marked in the blood and the gold  
G    F                G         A     
I'll meet you further on up the road  
   
NC                   A                         C     
Got on my dead man's suit and my smilin' skull ring  
                   A                 C     
My lucky graveyard boots and song to sing  
                A     G                     A    G 
I got a song to sing, to keep me out of the cold   
         F                G         A      
And I'll meet you further on up the road.  
NC                C     
Further on up the road  
   
                  A     
Further on up the road  
                 C                     E7    
Where the way is dark and the night is cold  
          A       G            A    G 
One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know   
         F                G         A      
And I'll meet you further on up the road.  
   
G  A         C         A    E7    A    A

NC                    A                     C     
Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time  
                      A                   C     
Searchin' through the dust, lookin' for a sign  
                        G                         A    G 
If there's a light up a-head well brother I don't know   
      F              G             A     
Coz I got this fever burnin' in my soul  
   
                  C     
Further on up the road  
                  A     
Further on up the road  
                  C     
Further on up the road  
                  E7    
Further on up the road  
   
          A       G            A    G 
One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know   
         F                G         A     G 
And I'll meet you further on up the road    
   
G    A    G    A    G    A
