Chords for Emmylou Harris - "The Road" - live @ ROMP 6.25.11 Owensboro, KY

[F#m] And, um, _ _ [E] anyway, took me out [B] on the road and taught me [N] how to love George Jones and the
[E] Lubin Brothers and all the good [F#m] stuff.
[E] And, uh, if it wasn't for him, I probably, nobody would be interested in anything I [F] had
to do or say, but [A] anyway, this is for [E] Graham.
_ _ _ [A] Woo!
You got it, Graham!
_ [E] I can _ [A] _ _
_ _ [E] still remember _ [A] every [E] song you played long ago when you were younger and we [A] rocked the nightlife.
[E] How could I see a future [A] where you would [E] not grow old?
Such a fire in our blood, such a hunger [A] in our [E] souls.
I guess I probably learned [B] those words wrote off your tongue.
[C#m] It seemed that we were trapped [A] under [B] some old lucky sun.
[E] And though I could sing, and no one [A] would complain,
[E] I know we'll be shared together, but [B] we'll never [E] be the same. _ _ _
And _ [B] all [E] the love we've grown _ will be gone.
_ _ _ [F#m] _
And _ [B] when the [E] sun will rise and all the wings of the sun will end,
_ [A] _ _
_ [E] I'll wander in the woods for a while I'll walk the woods,
and everything there is a seed, and every [A] blessing has [E] its fruit.
So I took what you left, and [A] put it [E] to the use,
looking for an answer [A] of those three cores and the truth.
[E] I come down from the mountain, [B] I come looking in your shoes,
[C#m] I was thinking more and more [A] when I had no more [E] to lose.
For you put me on the path, how [A] could I refuse?
_ _ [E] I have spent my whole life [B] on you, working [E] on the blues.
_ _ [F#m] _ _
And we [B] _ [E] can't be the same.
And [A] _ _
[E] _ we _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ [E] _ can't _ _ be [C#m] the same.
[B] _ [F#m] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [Em] _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ [B] _ [Em] So I put you on the path,
you [A] can't be [Em] haunted by [E] the past.
People come and people [A] go, and nothing ever lasts.
[E] Though I still think about you, wonder where you are.
Can you see me from someplace up [B] there among the stars?
[A] _ _
[B] _ [E] _ Down here on the hill, [B] there never was a choice,
[C#m] [F#m] but [C#m] I will cross [E] the highway of a heart,
with its own heart, the journey [A] of the end.
_ _ [E] On that road I'm glad [B] I came to know [E] you, my woman.
_ _ [F#m] _
There is [B] a road [E] I know,
[A] it's _ winding [E] coming round today.
[F#m] _ _
There is [B] a [E] road I know,
and on the wheels of a song of love,
_ [A] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I'll go.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
