Wherever I May Roam

Metallica · Live Shit [2002]

(And the road becomes my bride)

And the road becomes my bride

I have stripped of all but pride

So in her I do confide

And she keeps me satisfied

Gives me all I need

And with dust in throat I crave

Only knowledge will I save

To the game you stay as slave



Rover, wanderer

Nomad, vagabond

Call me what you will -- yeah!



No, but I'll take my time anywhere

Free to speak my mind anywhere

And I'll redefine anywhere

Anywhere I roam

Where I lay my head is home - yeah!



(And the earth becomes my throne)

And the earth becomes my throne

I adapt to the unknown

Under wandering stars I've grown

By myself but not alone

I ask no one

And my ties are severed clean

Less I have the more I gain

Off the beaten path I reign



Rover wanderer

Nomad vagabond

Call me what you will -- yea you will!



But I'll take my time anywhere

I'm free to speak my mind anywhere

And I'll never mind anywhere

Anywhere I roam

Where I lay my head is home -- yeah-yeah!

But I'll take my time anywhere

I'm free to speak my mind

And I'll take my find anywhere

Anywhere I roam

Where I lay my head is home -- thats right!



guitar solo 2



But I'll take my time anywhere

I'm free to speak my mind anywhere

And I'll redefiine anywhere

Anywhere I roam

Where I lay my head is home

Carved upon my stone

My body lie, but still I roam -- yeah yeah!

Wherever I may roam (3x)

Wherever I may roam - yeah!

Wherever I may wander wander wander

Wherever I may roam - yeah-yeah!

Wherever I may roam - yeah-yeah!

Wherever I may roam (3x)
