🎸 Intro:

A#  Dm   Gm   Dm


🎸 Verse 1:
A#                                 Dm
Left out on the road eight years ago
    Gm                                                 Dm
And you left too but I never really thought you would really go
    A#                         Dm
And if I knew then I's really losing you
    Gm                                   Dm
I'd change my ways and my mind before I lose control
            A#                                     Dm
'Cause in a darkened space we watched our souls replace
   Gm                                Dm
We said our goodbyes but we didn't know the shape

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
        A#
And for years now
       Dm
I been hunting you down
          A#
Trying to find out
            Dm
Your hiding place


🎸 Chorus:
       F
Oh, at last!
                  D#
You're here in my arms again
                     F
And I don't know how long
           D#
So I won't waste a bit
                  F
The beauty of the road
                D#
Is lost in your eyes, I drift
               F
Softly back to when
        D#
We were young


🎸 Verse 2:
       A#
And in love
                  Dm
Oh, where does it go?
               Gm
You spend your whole life wishing and working
                   Dm
All you get is the end of the rope
A#
Oh, what do we know?
               Gm
You spend your whole life searching and find
                            Dm
The thing you're looking is what you lost so long ago


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
        A#                    Dm
And for years now, I've been hunting the sound
     A#
That soft breath on the back of my neck
       Dm
Got me running, running, running, running

Oh, at last!
                  D#
You're here in my arms again

And I don't know how long
           D#
So I won't waste a bit
                  F
The beauty of the road
                D#
Is lost in your eyes, I drift
               F
Softly back to when
        D#
We were young
