As usual, George is referencing Eastern philosophy, this time the Buddhist concept of the Noble Eightfold Path. George has achieved quite a lot of inner contentment at this point in his life – as evidenced by the fact that he never got around to releasing this track during his lifetime. As a resul...
[Intro]
Give me, uh, plenty of that guitar
[Verse 1]
For I've been travellin' on a boat and a plane
In a car, on a bike, with a bus and a train
Travellin' there, travellin' here
Everywhere in every gear
[Chorus]
But, oh Lord, we pay the price
With the spin of a wheel, with the roll of the dice
Ah yeah, you pay your fare
And if you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
[Verse 2]
And I've been travellin' through the dirt and the grime
From the past to the future, through the space and the time
Travellin' deep beneath the waves
In watery grottoes and mountainous caves
[Chorus]
But, oh Lord, we've got to fight
With the thoughts in the head, with the dark and the light
No use to stop and stare
And if you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
[Bridge]
You may not know where you came from
May not know who you are
May not have even wondered
How you got this far
[Verse 3]
I've been travellin' on a wing and a prayer
By the skin of my teeth, by the breadth of a hair
Travellin' where the four winds blow
With the sun on my face, in the ice and the snow
[Chorus]
But, ooh wee, it's a game
Sometimes you're cool, sometimes you're lame
Ah yeah, it's somewhere
If you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
But, oh Lord, we pay the price
With the spin of the wheel, with the roll of the dice
Ah yeah, you pay your fare
If you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
[Verse 4]
I keep travellin' around the bend
There was no beginning, there is no end
It wasn't born and never dies
There are no edges, there is no sides
[Chorus]
Oh yeah, you just don't win
It's so far out, the way out is in
Bow to God and call him Sir
But if you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
[Outro]
And if you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
If you don't know where you're goin'
Any road will take you there
