[Intro]
C D Em N.C.
[Verse 1]
Em D C I'd be glad to tell you the story Em D C About a solitary road Em D C You can't take nobody with you D Em And you ain't coming back if you go
[Verse 2]
Em D C It's a highway teeming with blackjack Em D C On every corner, young Jezebels Em D C Well, they say it can lead to salvation D Em But you won't be able to tell
N.C.
'Cause it's a solitary road
[Guitar Solo]
C D Em C D Em N.C.
[Verse 3]
Em D C I was only a wanderer Em D C A lonely child of circumstance Em D C When I heard that nightingale calling me D Em And he flew right into my hands
[Verse 4]
Em D C Well, he told me they'd rise up against me Em D C As it turned out, this was the case Em D C I saw jackals roaming the valleys D Em Grifters all over the place
N.C.
See, it's a solitary road
[Guitar Solo]
C D Em C D Em N.C.
[Verse 5]
Em D C A kingdom lay high on the mountain Em D C I could see it through rain and snow Em D C Many had fallen in fields beside me D Em As I cross over every road
[Verse 6]
Em D C When I reached those gates of the city Em D C I was trembling, I have to confess Em D C Eyes of judgment lay heavy upon me D Em The red sun hung low in the west
N.C.
On the solitary road
