Verse 1

A         D                 A
I am from Frisco, many days gone
      A           D                 A
And I long to get back to where I'm from
      A           D                    A
For I never saw a woman with a sweeter gaze
          D       A           E       A
Than that woman I loved in my younger days

Verse 2

    A             D                      A
But I've seen the Arch and, the Redwoods tall
A          D                       A
Tasted the fruit, heard the sirens call
        D                   A
Settled hearts and slept in fields
  D         A           E
I know this land I know how it feels

Chorus

         D
I am the traveler
         A
I am the one
         D
I am the roamer
           E   D A
My love is gone

Verse 3

           A      D                    A
Well, I've seen a face draw a thousand stares
A                D               A
Held a woman the world judged as fair
      A            D                    A
But I never saw an eye that shared your hue
    D         A           E       A
Nor lips that spoke words half as true

Chorus

         D
I am the traveler
         A
I am the one
         D
I am the roamer
           E D A
My love is gone

Verse 4

A         D                 A
I am from Frisco, many days gone
         A         D                 A
And I'll never get back to where I'm from
A           D                    A
I know that woman, she waits for me
                     D     G
For I laid the stone she's underneath

Chorus

     D
I am thetraveler
         A
I am the one
         D
I am the roamer
           E D A
My love is gone
