Capo 3rd Fret
Intro: D-A-Bm-F#m-G-D-A x2
D A Bm F#m
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
G D A
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
D A Bm F#m
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
G D
Can't help but wish that I was there
A
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah
D A Bm A
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
G D
to hold her when I'm not around,
A
when I'm much too far away
D A Bm A
We all need that person who can be true to you
G D
But I left her when I found her
A
And now I wish I'd stayed
G A
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
F#m Bm A G
I'm missing you again oh no
D
Once again
D A Bm F#m
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
G D
There's no one here while the city sleeps
A
and all the shops are closed
D A Bm F#m
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
G D A
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

D
Once again
Bm F#m G D
Some search, never finding a way
Bm F#m G D
Before long, they waste away
Bm F#m G D
I found you, something told me to stay
Bm F#m G D
I gave in, to selfish ways
Em A
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade...
