C             F           C
If today was not an endless highway, 

C             F           C
If tonight was not a crooked trail, 

F             G           C
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time, 

         F                     G          C
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all. 

         F                     G          C
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin'

         F                     G          C
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', 

F          G          C
Only if she was lyin' by me, 

F                         G              C
Then I'd lie in my bed once again. 

C             F           C
I can't see my reflection in the waters, 

C             F           C
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain, 

         F                     G          C
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps, 

         F                     G          C
Or can't remember the sound of my own name.

         F                     G          C
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin'

         F                     G          C
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', 

F          G          C
Only if she was lyin' by me, 

F                         G              C
Then I'd lie in my bed once again. 

C             F           C
There's beauty in the silver, singin' river, 

C             F           C
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky, 

         F                     G          C
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty 

         F                     G          C
That I remember in my true love's eyes. 

         F                     G          C
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin'

         F                     G          C
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', 

F          G          C
Only if she was lyin' by me, 

F                         G              C
Then I'd lie in my bed once again. 

C
ooooh...
