[Bb]
[A] [Bb]
The night was black, roads were icy, snow [Eb] was [F] falling just [Bb] behind.
I was weary from my driving.
I stopped [F] to rest for [Bb] a while.
I sat down at a truck stop.
I [Ab] was thinking about [Bbm] my past.
[Bb] I thought it long, you could have bad [Eb]
luck, but [Bb] I'm praying [Cm] it's [Bb] going to last.
It's going to last, going to last, [Eb] going to last, [Bb] going to last, going to last.
I thought it long, you could have [Eb] bad luck, [Bb] but I'm [F] praying it's [Bb] going to last.
So, [Eb] [E] [Bb] [Ebm] I [Gm]
[F] [Eb] [Bb]
ain't dumb, I kicked around some, [Eb] but I don't [Db] fall too [Bb] easily.
[Eb] [Bbm] That girl, [Eb]
she looked so [Bb] energetic, [Eb] [Bb] she just [F]
grabbed my [Bb] sympathy.
Sweet little [Fm] soul, [Bb] what's your problem?
[Eb] Tell me [Ab] why [Bb] you're so downcast.
I thought it [Eb] long, [Bb] you could have bad [Em] [Bb] luck, but [F] I'm praying it's [Bb] going to last.
It's going to last, going to last, [Eb] going to last, [Bbm] going to [Bb] last.
I thought it long, [Eb] you [Bb] could have [Eb] bad luck, [Bb] but I'm praying it's [Eb] [Bb] going to last.
[Eb]
[C] [Gb] [Gm] [F] [Eb]
[Bb]
Every once in a while, it's a matter of nowhere, you [Eb] don't expect [Db] it, you're [Bb]
[Eb] unprepared.
[Bbm] [Bb] Somebody will come and lift [Gm] you higher, [Bb] and your [Eb] burdens will [Bb] be shattered.
And I do believe, if I hadn't met you, I [Eb] might still be sinking [Bb]
fast.
I thought it long, you could have [Eb] bad luck, but [Bb] I'm [Eb] praying it's [Bb] going to last.
It's going to last, going to last, [Eb] going to last, [Ab] [Bb] going to last.
I thought it long, you could have [Eb] bad luck, [Bb] but I'm praying [Cm] it's [Bb] going to last.
Go on live, go [Eb] on reliveand go
[Db] [Bb] out there and just go on join inaceyville, en route to suprise
Seek it out [Eb] now, but [Bb] I'm praying.
[F] For [Bb] THORNY LAND
