Chris Rea - Curse of the Traveller: chords

Am                                          Dm
On the restless road to nowhere, there's no certain
peace, it seems
Am                      Dm
Desire to keep on moving to the River of Dreams
Am                                 Dm
Is it just because someone told you? Is it
just because you found
Am                      Dm
Old Freedom feels uneasy when duty is around?

Fmaj7                               Em
When allegiance asks the questions, Old
Freedom twists and turns
Dm                          Am
And chokes on codes of Honor, on the Sword of
No Return

Chorus:
Dm G                        Am
And it's The Curse of the Traveller
Dm G              Am
The Curse of the Traveller
Dm G          Am
Got a hold of me
Dm G                 Am
And it won't let you be

And in sleepless nights
You'll call her name
And feel loneliness cold to the bone
And when the daylight breaks
This old tired heart aches
To be such a long way, such a long way from home

And you long for the harbourlights
But you'll never be free
Of the craving for refuge
And the call of the sea
Always wanting to sell up
But always needing to buy
So till the road leads to somewhere
And that river runs dry

Chorus:
It's the curse of the traveller
Ain't gonna let you be
The curse of the traveller
And it sure got a hold of me
