 verse:
 
 (main riff x3)
 Takes the time to stay one place
 Though his clothes aren't finest lace
 Read the lines on a tramps face

 C          G               A              B 
 Taking his time, just like you, just like me

 Searching for love in the call of the wild
 C          G           B    
 Travelling lost like a child

 (main riff x3)
 Law has missed him every day
 Doesn't need it anyway
 Life is the next meal away

 A lost woman long ago
 Does she miss him? does he know?
 Does it matter in the snow?
