Walkin' Jim Stoltz The Long Trails
Capo to Key of Bb
G D C Am
1) I've been chasin rainbows since I was a kid
C D G
Seekin out the paths where no others did.
G D C Am
The life of the trail I took to my heart,
C D
Wanderin wild, and livin the part.
Em C
I found my way down that endless track,
Em C
It fit me well, this life of the pack,
Em C
Out where the world is one, untamed and on the run,
Em Am C D
Stretchin out into the setting sun.
C D G Em C Am D G
Chorus: I walk the long trails, I came of age on the
long trails,
C D G Em
I found my place in those wide open spaces
C Am D G
Out there a-walkin on the long trails.
2) This is a big ol land, and quite the haul,
From coast to coast, I've walked it all
The ol AT and Pacific Crest
The Great Divide and all of the rest.
Step on out and the months roll by,
Summer fades to the Autumn sky
Live well with what you learn, Time has no course to
burn
The seasons flow, into your heart they turn.
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
C D G Em
There's one thing I think you really have to know
C Am C D
I ain't out for records, and it ain't for show
C D G Em
You reach for the miles and grab on hold,
C Am
A long trails a matter of your heart,
C
Of your heart
Em C D
Of your heart and soul.
C D G Em C Am D G
Chorus: I walk the long trails, I came of age on the
long trails,
C D G Em
I found my place in those wide open spaces
C Am D G
Out there a-walkin’ on the long trails.
