Rodney Crowell - Many a long and lonesome highway

^CYes I had a woman love me, ^G I gave her what there was there of me. ^F And it was good as it could ^Cbe. Then I heard a wild world calling, ^G I saw a lone star falling, ^F I caught a song, & set^C it free.

And many a ^Amlong & lones^Come highway, lie^Ams before us as^G we go, And in the ^Fend, I'll do it ^Cmy way. ^Am Look for ^Gme, where the four winds ^Cblow.

I believe in love & dang^Ger, I believe the truth is stranger, ^F I believe that fear is much too ^Cstrong. I believe the best will find me, ^G when I leave the rest behind me, ^F Out on the highway on my ^Cown.

And many a ^Amlong & lones^Come highway, lie^Ams before us as^G we go, And in the ^Fend, I'll do it ^Cmy way. ^Am Look for ^Gme, where the four winds ^Cblow.

And every ^Amnight's a new be^Emginning. Every^Amday, the world keeps spinning. ^Em Sometimes, it's hard to stand up^Gon my own. ^F To the East, the moon comes showing. ^Am To the West, there's dark clouds rolling. ^Em I'm by myself, but not a-^Glone no more.

^C My father on his death bed told me, ^G there's really nothing left to hold me, ^F Though I was there he died a^Clone. It's going to take a fast train leaving, ^G to shake my world from grieving. ^F I'll guess I'll go until it's ^Cgone.

And many a ^Amlong & lones^Come highway, lies^Am be-fore us as^G we go, And in the ^Fend, I'll do it ^Cmy way. ^Am Look for ^Gme, where the four winds ^Cblow.
