Got on my dead man's suit and my smilin' skull ring My lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing I got a song to sing, it keeps me out of the cold And I'll meet you further on up the road.C R: Further on up the roadAm Further on up the roadC E7 Where the way is dark and the night is coldAm G Am G One sunny mornin' we'll rise I knowF G Am And I'll meet you further on up the road. 3. Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time Searchin' through the dust, lookin' for a sign If there's a light up ahead well brother I don't know But I got this fever burnin' in my soulC R1: Further on up the roadAm Further on up the roadC Further on up the roadE7 Further on up the road One sunny mornin' we'll rise I knowG And I'll meet you further on up the road One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know And I'll meet you further on up the road
