The Teskey Brothers


Tom: F

F                             Gm
  Well I’ve been running since I was child
F                               Gm
  Running like a river after the rains have died
F                               Gm
  Ain’t never had one place to call my home
Bb       Am                   C
  Lay my head in a different place unknown

[Verse]

F                       Gm
  I wake up early and I wake late
F                        Gm
  But I never had time to hesitate
F                            Gm
  I pick up my paper and I pick up my bread
Bb        Am            C
  there’s room on the road ahead

[Chorus]

        Bb                  C
I don’t want no country to call my own
          Bb               C
I don’t need one place to call my home
                   Bb                                    C
There ain’t no one place or people are that are better or worse
      Bb         Am      F
I’m a man of the universe

F  Gm  x2

[Verse]

F                                         Gm
  Like a good strong flowing river that’s never been dammed
F                              Gm
  Never had to change never had no plan
F                             Gm
  To collect too much wealth it’s a curse
Bb                 Am               C
  We never had the sense to change, what’s worse

[Verse]

F                                Gm
  Never needed no land never need no borders,
F                                            Gm
  Never needed to stay in one place to count up pennies or quarters
F                                           Gm
  Never had enough of them to put in my own purse, 
        Bb         Am    C
  I’m a man of the universe

[Chorus]

         Bb                 C
I don’t want no country to call my own
          Bb               C
I don’t need one place to call my home
                   Bb                                   C
There ain’t no one place or people are that are better or worse
      Bb         Am      F
I’m a man of the universe

I don’t need one place to call my home
                   Bb                                   C
There ain’t no one place or people are that are better or worse

I’m a man of the universe

          Bb               C
I don’t need one place to call my home
                   Bb                                   C
There ain’t no one place or people are that are better or worse
      Bb         Am      F
I’m a man of the universe
      Bb         Am      F
I’m a man of the universe
      Bb         Am      F
I’m a man of the universe
      Bb         Am      C

[Outro]

F                     Gm
And I´m not from here
F             Gm
Not from here
F            Gm
I don’t need, I don’t need no fences
F                       Gm
To pull a rope around me
    F         Gm
Woah-Woah
    F         Gm
yeah yeah
    F         Gm
I don’t need
F   Gm
