Modern Day Drifter

capo II

I'm gonna be a modern day drifter

Get out while I can

D7

Gonna trade in this life I've been livin'

For a pocket full of sand

And a modern day drifter

Don't have to tell no one his plans

I'm gonna find that long stretch of highway

Where no one knows my name

D7

Where as long as the sky just goes on

And it's never the same

A modern day drifter don't ever complain

Bye bye, high life

Feels like the right time

To say so long

Keep on goin' strong

And I'll just keep on bein' gone

'Cause I'm gonna be a modern day drifter

Yes I am

D7

Gonna slip this ring off my finger

'Cause everybody understands

That a modern day drifter's got

Nothin' but time on his hands

Bye bye, high life

It feels like the right time

To say so long

Keep on goin' strong

And I'll just keep bein' gone

'Cause I'm gonna be a modern day drifter

Oh, yes I am

Gonna slip this ring off my finger

'Cause everybody understands

That a modern day drifter's got

Nothin' but time on his hands
