May The Road Rise chords by Roger Mcguinn

C      D        G         Em
Summertime the sun would shine we'd lay across the field
 C              D
Sheltered in the shadow of a tree
  C      D        G         Em
We'd write our poems to take along And sing out on the road
 C                  D
And you would always sing this song to me
     C      D
May the road rise to meet you
     G        Em
May the wind be at your back
    C     D        G
May the sun shine warm upon your land
     C        D
May the rain fall soft upon your face
  G     Em
Until we meet again
  C          D      G
May God hold you in the palm of his hand

  C      D        G         Em
Autumn leaves that change our tree To colours on the ground
 C              D
Swirling patterns beautiful to see
  C      D        G         Em
I'd lay my head down on your lap I wouldn't make a sound
 C                  D
And you would always sing this song to me
     C      D
May the road rise to meet you
     G        Em
May the wind be at your back
    C     D        G
May the sun shine warm upon your land
     C        D
May the rain fall soft upon your face
  G     Em
Until we meet again
  C          D      G
May God hold you in the palm of his hand

  C      D        G         Em
Through the winter days our tree would shiver in the wind
 C                  D
Waiting for the warming touch of spring
  C      D        G         Em
I'd hold you in the firelight We'd stare into the flames
 C                  D
And this is what you always used to sing
     C      D
May the road rise to meet you
     G        Em
May the wind be at your back
    C     D        G
May the sun shine warm upon your land
     C        D
May the rain fall soft upon your face
  G     Em
Until we meet again
  C          D      G
And may God hold you in the palm of his hand
 C                  D
And may the rain fall soft upon your face
  G     Em
Until we meet again
  C          D      G
And may God hold you in the palm of his hand
