Intro: C   Dm   F    G 

C                           Dm 
Alice works the desk at the East Bay Hotel 
   F                  G 
In Grand Marais, Minnesota 
C                                 Dm 
I came in one night, she said, "I loved your show" 
   F                     G       C 
We sat and talked on the sofa 


             F             G                     C 
She's on her own since her husband passed away 
             F                   G                     
Some surgeon screwed up, there's nothing left to say 
        C                                Dm 
Now she works this desk at night and the campground by day 
     F                              G 
In a trailer by the lake, until the summer blows away 


    C                       Dm 
She read about the job in a camping magazine 
    F                 G 
And home was just a reminder 
       C                     Dm                      F 
So she took the cat and dog, stored away her things 
                     G         C 
Left the bleakness behind her 


     F               G                     C 
Even now through the ache of missing him 
                  F          G                     
She's filled with wonder and far from giving in 
         C                        Dm 
She sees magic on the lake in the early morning light 
    F                                   G 
And talking books and telling tales, we sat there half the night 

  

                   C                  F 
And she said, "The more I travel, the more I wanna see 
G                 C 
My kids want some settled life for me 
              A                       Dm       Dsus2 
I don't wanna move somewhere and grow old quietly 
               G           F            C 
And the more I travel, the more I wanna see" 


           C                           Dm 
Well, it's time to make a change, with winter in the wings 
        F                      G 
And the East Bay Hotel made an offer 
        C                                   Dm  
But she doesn't really know, 'cause there's everywhere to go 
            F                              G            C 
And there's everything that travelling has taught her 


       F            G                   C 
Moving marches down busy city streets 
                       F             G                     
Fantastic people she's privileged to meet 
        C                        Dm 
And she dreams about Alaska, the snow so deep and white 
         F                                   G 
And that little town in Texas, where there's dancing every night 

  
 
               C                  F 
She says, "The more I travel, the more I wanna see 
G                 C 
My kids want some settled life for me 
              A                       Dm       Dsus2 
I don't wanna move somewhere and grow old quietly 
               G       F   C 
And the more I travel" 


                        F 
"The more I travel, the more I wanna see 
G                 C 
My kids want some settled life for me 
              A                       Dm       Dsus2 
I don't wanna move somewhere and grow old quietly 
               G           F            C 
And the more I travel, the more I wanna see" 
    G            C 
The more I wanna see"
