Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]The[B][Em][A][C][B]
[Em]road, it never changes,
but the [D]people [Dm]al ways d[D]o
To[Am]night the time has [B]come
to tell you [Em]so
The path along the river side
[D]is sparkled now again
[Am]Stretching here [B]to where God only [Em]knows

[Verse 2]
[G]I'll always love you, girl,
on [D]that you can rely
There's nothing more or less
you need [Em]to know
[G]So, lady, you better head back
in [D]the crook of my old arm
And [Am]love me one more [B]time before I [Em]go[G]

[Interlude 1]
[Em][D][Am][B][Em]
[D][Em][D][Am][B]
[Em][G][D]
[Em][G][D][Am][B]
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[Em]A lonesome, lonesome highway
Out here think[D]ing back on you
I'll [Am]let your warm love [B]shield
me from [Em]the cold
A melody and memory so [D]shiny
bright in these roads
[Am]Breathing, where's the
[B]rhythm of [Em]the road?

[Verse 4]
[G]Early in the morning just be
[D]fore the sun comes up
You miss me making,
all these around [Em]the stove
He'll [G]touch you in the place
where my own [D]body used to be
And [Am]curse the day [B]I left you

[Outro 1]
on the road
[Em][G][D]
[Em][G][D][Am][B]
[Em]
