[Verse 1]
C
I walked this road, went up and down
Am C
I've walked this road a thousand times
C
I've walked up and 'round the bend
Am C
To find this road it has no end
F Am
The road is hard, the road is long
G C
It tears you up, n' wears you down
F Am
It feeds you hope, then make you blue
G C
This dirty road where I met you
[Verse 2]
C
I saw your face in filthy bars
Am C
Where I fed my broken heart
C
And when I finally caught your eye
Am C
I knew a part in me had died
F Am
And with my mind too dim to think
G C
I took your hand and I paid your drink
F Am
And then we strolled on to my home
G C C7
A little further down that road
[Bridge]
F
Soon comes the time when you stop to bother
C
Slowly the wine it'll turn to water
G A
It's hard to help it even though you know
F G C
Soon you'll be back on that old road
[Verse 3]
C
A few years later down the road
Am C
A thousand fights and slamming doors
C
A thousand lies that I did tell
Am C C7
Hope you still love me mmm anyway
F C
You know there's changes bound to come
G Am
You got me scared and I did run
F Am G C C7
It took some time but now I know, I won't go back down that old road
F Am G C
It took some time but now I know, I won't go back down that old road
