I first heard this song yesterday, and I loved it so much I had to learn it.

So I did, then I put it up here. It probably isn't perfect, but it sounds

good enough to me.

The strumming pattern is pretty simple, you should be able to figure

something out

from listening to the song.

Intro:
D Em G D x2
A A7sus2
First verse:
D Em
I'm a travelling man a-moving
F#m G
You name it I've been there
A G/B A Em7
And night and day I strive to sell my wares, now...
D Em
Got nothing I can show you
F#m G
And nothing you can wear
A G/B A Em7
But hang around a while and lend an ear, now...
Bm F#m
While travellin' on a freight-train
G A
On the Rocky Island line
Bm F#m
My young love said to me
G A
My mother she don't mind
Em F#m
Through twelve gates of the city
G A7
I came into my prime
D Em G D
I was singing songs of wild mountain thyme

Repeat intro:
D Em G D

Second verse:
