Wayne Hancock - Route 23

^EWhen I read this mornings headlines I s^B7aw your name And it mentioned just two others that share your^E fame In a^Another fourteen days you would have married me^{E B7}Now there's nothing but a cross out on route 23^E

^EWell I walked that stretch of pavement where you b^B7reathed your last Run my fingers though the gravel & the broken ^Eglass They^A told me not to come here, but I had to s^Eee ^B7All that's left of what was once mine on route ^E23

^EWell I'm a goin' to your funeral then I'm ^B7goin' away Without you here beside me it's no use to s^Etay Every^Athing I had ain't nothing but a me^Emory ^B7And a cross marks the spot out on route ^E23
