[Intro] F C Dm Am Bb F C x2 [Verse 1]
 F        C             Dm                 Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

Bb                F            C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

F          C           Dm                 Am
While I recall all the words you spoke to me

      Bb                  F
Can't help but wish that I was there

      C
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah
[Chorus]
F    C       Dm          C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

    Bb                      F
to hold her when I'm not around,

          C
when I'm much too far away

F        C         Dm           C
We all need that person who can be true to you

       Bb               F
But I left her when I found her

    C
And now I wish I'd stayed

            Bb             C
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

      A7          Dm  C  Bb
I'm missing you again oh no

           F
Once again
[Verse 2]
F                C          Dm              Am
There's nothing here for me on this barren road

        Bb                         F
There's no one here while the city sleeps

      C
and all the shops are closed

F               C            Dm                 Am
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you

Bb                 F              C
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah
[Chorus]
F    C        Dm           C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

     Bb                        F
to hold her when I'm not around,

          C
when I'm much too far away

F      C         Dm             C
We all need that person who can be true to you

   Bb               F
I left her when I found her

    C         
And now I wish I'd stayed

           Bb              C
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

       A7         Dm   C  Bb
I'm missing you again oh no

          F
Once again
[Bridge]
Dm     A7     Bb               F
Some search, never finding a way

Dm      A7  Bb             F
Before long, they waste away

Dm      A7  Bb                      F
I found you, something told me to stay

Dm    A7  Bb               F
I gave in, to selfish ways

Gm                         C
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade...
F         C             Dm                 Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

Bb               F            C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
[Chorus]
F     C      Dm            C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

    Bb                F
to hold her when I'm not around,

         C
when I'm much too far away

F      C        Dm             C
We all need the person who can be true to you

    Bb             F
I left her when I found her

    C
And now I wish I'd stayed

           Bb              C
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

       A7         Dm  C  Bb
I'm missing you again oh no

            F
Once again
