[Intro 1]
[C][Am][Em][F][G]
[C][Am][Em][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]I drove through the des[Am]ert last nig[Em]ht
[F][G]
[C]I carried the wei[Am]ght of our last fig[Em]ht
[F][G]
[C]Elvis singing "don't be [Am]cruel"
And I wonder
[Em]if you feel it too It's li[F]ke we're going u[G]nder

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Am]Somewhere outside
the [Dm]lonely Esmeralda county [Em]line
The question of my [F]heart came to my [G]mind

[Chorus 1]
If I go [F]on with [C]you (by my side)
Can it [Am]be the wa[F]y it[G] was?
When we [F]met
Did you for[C]get all about those [G]golden nights?

[Verse 2]
[C]Maybe a thi[Am]ef stole your hea[Em]rt[F][G]
[C]Or maybe we jus[G]t drifted apar[Am]t
I [F]remember [G]driving
[C]In my daddy's car[Am] to the airfield
[Em]Blanket on the hood,
[F]backs against the [G]windshield

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Am]Back then this thing was runni[Dm]ng
on momentum, love and [Em]trust
That paradise is [F]buried in the [G]dust

[Chorus 2]
If I go [F]on with [C]you (by my side)
Can it [Am]be the wa[F]y it[G] was?
When we [F]met
Did you for[C]get all about those [G]golden nights?

[Bridge 1]
(The way it was, it was)
[Dm]All of our plans have fallen throu[Am]gh[G]
[Dm]Sometimes a dream,
it don't come [G]true[F][Am][G]
[F][C][G]

[Chorus 3]
Dar[F]ling! Dar....
[C](If we go on, can it be?[Am])
Can it be the [F]way [G]it was?
When we [F]met
Did you for[C]get all about them [G]golden nights?
If I go [F]on with [C]you (by my side)
Can it [Am]be the wa[F]y it[G] was?
My heart is [F]true
Girl, it's [C]just you I'm think[G]ing of

[Outro 1]
Can it be the way it
[C](was?)[Am][Em][F][G]
[C]Maybe a thi[Am]ef stole your hea[Em]rt[F][G]
[C][Am][Em][F][G]
[Fade out]
