Intro: F-C-Dm-Am-B-F-C  x2


 F    C       Dm         Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
B        F      C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
F     C      Dm         Am
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
   B         F
Can't help but wish that I was there
   C
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

F  C    Dm     C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
  B           F
to hold her when I'm not around,
     C
when I'm much too far away
F    C     Dm      C
We all need that person who can be true to you
    B        F
But I left her when I found her
  C
And now I wish I'd stayed
      B       C
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
    *     Dm C B
I'm missing you again oh no
      F
Once again


F        C     Dm       Am
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
    B             F
There's no one here while the city sleeps
   C
and all the shops are closed
F        C      Dm         Am
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
B         F       C
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah


F  C    Dm      C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
   B            F
to hold her when I'm not around,
     C
when I'm much too far away
F   C     Dm       C
We all need that person who can be true to you
  B        F
I left her when I found her
  C
And now I wish I'd stayed
      B       C
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
    *     Dm  C B
I'm missing you again oh no
     F
Once again


Dm   *   B        F
Some search, never finding a way
Dm   * B       F
Before long, they waste away
Dm   * B            F
I found you, something told me to stay
Dm  * B        F
I gave in, to selfish ways
Gm             C
And how I miss someone to hold

when hope begins to fade...

F     C       Dm         Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
B        F      C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find


F   C   Dm      C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
  B        F
to hold her when I'm not around,
     C
when I'm much too far away
F   C    Dm       C
We all need the person who can be true to you
  B       F
I left her when I found her
  C
And now I wish I'd stayed
      B       C
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
     *    Dm C B
I'm missing you again oh no
      F
Once again
