  A  G

        A
  I was born a rambling man
        G
  And I never got the chance
                           A
  To settle down and get a hold on love

  Takin' air and movin' around
     G
  Is all that I seem to be doin'
            A
  And it is bringin' me down

  (Verse 2)
  Drivin' on a highway going nowhere
  Desolation destination
  Guess I'll find it somewhere
  I know if there's trouble
  I ain't takin' the blame
  That's why I keep movin'
  So nobody knows my name

  Listen
D           C         A
  Born a loser  I'm beyond the law
  D                C
  Women behind me, never can find me
           A
  They can never get together

  What I've been here for
               G
  'Cause I'm a drifter

Guitar solo: A

D           C         A
  Born a loser  I'm beyond the law
  D                C                A
  Women behind me, never can find me
  D             C                     G
  What a loser, maybe I'll choose her

Solo: A  G

  D            C  A
  Rollin' on
  D                 C                  A
  Rollin' on, ain't wastin' my time no more</font></pre>
