[E]
[A]
[E]
[A]
[E] I can still remember
[A] every song you [E] played long ago when we were younger and [A] we rocked
the night [E] away.
How could I see a future then [A] where you would not [E] grow with such a fire in our belly, [A] such
a hunger in our soul?
[E] I guess a proud love, [B] those words roll off your tongue, [C#m] seeing that we were traveling
[A] under some old lucky sun.
[E] I know I didn't say it and no one was to [A] blame, but [E] the road we shared together once [B] will
never [E] be the same.
[F#m]
[B] Pain [E]
[A] won't be coming [E] around this way.
[F#m] Pain
[B] with a [E] song I'll bring and on the wings
[A] [E]
I'll fly.
[A]
[E] I wandered in the wilderness [A] for a while I was so [E] lost.
To everything there is a season and [A] every blessing has its cost.
[E] So I took what you left me, [A] put it to some [E]
use.
I'm looking for an answer with [A] those three chords and the truth.
[E] I come down from the mountain, I [B] come walking in your shoes.
[C#m] I was seeking for a gambler [E] when I had no more to lose.
So you put me on that path, how could I [A] refuse?
[E] I have spent my whole life out [B] here working on the [E] bus.
[A] Hey,
[B] [E]
[A]
[E]
[A] hey, [B] hey, [E]
hey.
[F#m] [E]
[A]
[E]
So I carry on, you can't [Em] be haunted by [E] the past.
People come, people go [A] and nothing lasts.
[E] But I still think about you, wonder where you are.
Can you see me from someplace [A] up there among the stars?
[E] But down here under heaven [B] there never was a chart [C#m] to guide our way across this [A] crooked
highway of love.
[E] If it's only all about the journey and [A] the end, [E]
on that road I'm glad I came [B] to know
[E] my old friend.
[F#m]
Hey, hey, hey, [E] hey.
Lord of my way.
[A] Lord be [E] coming around today.
[A]
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
[B] With a song I [E] sing along the [B] way [A] [E]
[A]
I'll fly [E]
away.
