So, this is not necessarily in the key of the original, but you are
welcome to transpose it how you see fit... I like this for my voice.
Also, I don't know how accurate these are, but it's the best I could figure.
Anyway, this is my first attempt at posting chords...
I've only played guitar for a couple of months, so go easy on me!
As far as the strumming pattern, I recommend, DOWN DOWN UP UP DOWN UP.
The first verse is the only one where I put the Am before the Em.
And for that line in every verse, the G is on the first upstroke.
So is the Cadd9 in the last line of every verse.
Chords used:
C, D, G, Am, Em, Cadd9
Intro: C, D, G x2
C, D, Em, G, Am
Am, C, Cadd9, G
C D G
Two highways lay before me, which one will I choose
C D G
Down one lane I'd find happiness and down the other I would lose
C D Am G Em
There is no one that I can trust, I must decide alone
C Cadd9 G
My decision is an awful one, which road will take me home
(chorus)

C D G
In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone
C D G
Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long
C D Em G Am
Only time will tell if I have made a loser's choice
C Cadd9 G
And though sadness cries my inner soul, goodbye lover moans my voice
C D G
Perils, there are many, as I set out on my way
C D G
If I lose your love I know that I can call it back someday
C D Em G Am
Rambler, lonely rambler, just 'cause anyplace is home
C Cadd9 G
Nashville, lights how you have always shined
C D G
Wishing now that you had found a word or two to say
C D G
But the mornin' came and we both knew my eyes gave it away
C D Em G Am
As I kissed your cheeks and said goodbye I thought only time will tell
C Cadd9 G
And you can't draw water from an empty well
C D G
In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone
C D G
Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long
C D Em G Am
Only time will tell if I have made a loser's choice
C Cadd9 G
And though sadness cries my inner soul, goodbye lover moans my voice (x2)
