Intro:
| Am | G | G | F |

Verse 1:
       Am
It's a long, lonely road
          G
That I've walked on my own
      G                          F
Never thought I'd end up in this place (Ooh-ooh)
       Am
I went fast, I went slow
       G
Then I gave up all hope
         G                          F
'Cause I know, either way, it's the same (Ooh-ooh)

Pre-Chorus:
    Am                     G
And I'm not tryna find somebody
       G                        F
'Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh-ooh)
          Am
Yeah, the real thing is gone
      G                     G  G
Now I wish I could hold you_u

Chorus:
            Am                G/B C
I wish that all of these days and nights
          F                     C
Trying to chase all these empty highs
             Am                  G/B  C
But I had to go through my worse so I know
                   G               F
That I just needed you oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
     Am                 G/B  C
As I look out at the morning sun
            F                          C
There's no escape from the things I've done
           Am                    G/B   C
And out of everything I've lost, now I know
                   G               F
That I just needed you Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
                          Am  C
And darling, that's the truth
G            F
 Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Verse 2:
        Am
I don't lie anymore
     G
In a heap on the floor
           G                        F
'Cause I'm clear on the road I must take (Ooh-ooh)

Pre-Chorus:
    Am                     G
And I'm not tryna find somebody
       G                        F
'Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh-ooh)
    Am
I'm getting close, stumbling over
G                       G       G
Everything I need to say to you

Chorus:
            Am                G/B C
I wish that all of these days and nights
          F                     C

      Am                  G
I was searching, Heavenly Father
          G                  F
If you're out there, leave a light on
           Am                  G
'Cause the distance is getting wider

And I know I've gotta find ya
