Capo 2nd fret

Dropped D (DADGBE)

Intro

 I’m a drifter, l'm a loner

 And I've seen every city and town

 I’ll pass by here and I'll die here

 And some stranger will lower me down

 I've sat in the shade of an oId apple orchard

 Watched the big trucks rollin' by

 Shared a grape soda with a man from Dakota

 And seen a June bug in July

I’m a drifter...

 I’ve played basketball through the hoop of a barrel

 Struggled to learn how to swim

 Though I sometimes think maybe I once was a baby

 I only pretend I was him

I’m a drifter...

 I’ve made love in your city til the poor and the pretty

 Thought I was clever and smart

 I’ve ended up lonely with nothin’ but only

 A song and a half of a heart

 I’m a drifter, l'm a loner

 And I've seen every city and town

 I’ll pass by here and I'll die here

 And some stranger will lower me

Stranger will lower me down
