C
I walked this road, went up and down
                 Am              C
I've walked this road a thousand times
C
I've walked up and 'round the bend
             Am             C
To find this road it has no end
            F                 Am
The road is hard, the road is long
             G                C
It tears you up, n' wears you down
             F                   Am
It feeds you hope, then make you blue
           G                C
This dirty road where I met you


[Verse 2]
C
I saw your face in filthy bars
        Am            C
Where I fed my broken heart
C
And when I finally caught your eye
         Am             C
I knew a part in me had died
            F               Am
And with my mind too dim to think
            G                    C
I took your hand and I paid your drink
            F                 Am
And then we strolled on to my home
         G                 C    C7
A little further down that road


[Bridge]
F
Soon comes the time when you stop to bother
C
Slowly the wine it'll turn to water
     G                               A
It's hard to help it even though you know
               F       G        C
Soon you'll be back on that old road


[Verse 3]
C
A few years later down the road
           Am                  C
A thousand fights and slamming doors
C
A thousand lies that I did tell
               Am          C      C7
Hope you still love me mmm anyway
                 F                C
You know there's changes bound to come
           G                Am
You got me scared and I did run
             F              Am               G                  C     C7
It took some time but now I know, I won't go back down that old road
             F              Am               G                  C
It took some time but now I know, I won't go back down that old road
