Verse 1:

C
 Movin' right along,
In search of good times,
    F7
And good news,
     D7
With good friends,
You can't lose.
     F
This could,
         G7
Become a habit.

C
 Opportunity knocks once,
      F7
Let's reach out,
And grab it (yeah!)
  D7
Together we'll nab it,
      F
We'll hitchhike, bus,
   G7
Or yellow-cab it.
        E7
Cab it?

Chorus 1:

               Am
Movin' right a-long,
               G     Am
Foot-loose and fancy-free.

 Gettin' there,
Is half the fun,
     G+       G    C
Come share it with me.

E7              Am
 Movin' right a-long,
We'll learn to,

 Share the load.
Am
 We don't need a map,
             G+
To keep this show,
   G   C
On the road.

 Movin' right along,
           F7
We found a life,
On the highway,
    D7
And your way is my way,
   F             G7
So trust my navi-gation.

C
 California here we come,
     F7
That pie-in-the sky-land.
D7
 Palm trees and warm sand,
       F             G7
Though sadly we just,
G7
 Left Rhode Island.
We did what?

Just for-get it...

We're truly birds,
Of a feather.

We're in this together,
    F                   G7
And we know where we're goin'.

C
 Movie stars with flashy cars,
    F7
And life with the top down.
      D7
We're storming the big town
      F
Yeah, storm is right,

Should it be snowin'?

No I don't think so.
