The following song is already to be found in the archives, but IMO some of
the chords are wrong, so I corrected them.
In line 3, Neil plays Am, but you should try D instead. It sounds good, too.
Enjoy!

It doesn't matter where I lay
I've been to cities
I've been to countries
I've left a love in many towns
I don't care if I ever get back to
where I've already been around
I'm like an Eagle
I like to fly high
I'm like the snake I like to lay low
I'm like the black man I'm like the white man
Maybe the red man I don't know
I'm just a passenger
on this old freight train
I ride a box car through the night
I doesn't matter where I might get off
