[Verse 1]
C#m F# C#m F#
Playing dominos on the big coach, sometimes winning or losing

Playing darts in the barroom, in between the boozing

And later on the stage, playing music from a dream

Two for what he's seen

Later at the reception, pressmen and their wives

Later on in the hotel room, playing cards until the dawn

Others just conversating, I suppose they were having fun

And crashing to their bedrooms, legless one by one

It's five for the cold morn--ing light

Sixteen for the sun
[Verse 4]
C#m F# C#m F#
Back on the big coach in the morning, head full of pain
C#m F# C#m F#
Sleepy-eyed, still yawning, yes, we're back on the road again
B F# C#m F#
Sometimes makes me wonder, what we'll be like at the end
E F# B Badd9 C F#
It's seven for the travel---ling band
B
Eight for doing it all again
E F# B Badd9 C F#
Nine for the travel---ling band
