Trying To Get To You:Ricky Nelson. Album - Ricky Sings Again - 1959. #1.
C
I've been traveling over mountains,
even through the valleys, too.
                              F
I've been traveling night and day,

                G                           C   
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
#2.
C
Ever since I read your letter,
where you said you loved me, true.
                              F
I've been traveling night and day,

                G                           C   C7
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
CHORUS:
C7                      F
When I read your lovin' letters..

                       C
then my heart began to sing.

                        D
there were many miles between us,

                       G
but they didn't mean a thing.
(INTERLUDE:) #3.
C
Well, if I had to do it over..
that's exactly what I'd do.
                     F
I'd travel night and day, and I'd still 

            G                           C
run all the way, baby, trying to get to you.

                           F
I kept traveling night and day,

                G                           C  C7
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
CHORUS:
C7                               F
Well, there's nothing that could hold me.

                                C
Or that could keep me away from you.

                        D
When your loving letter told me,

                          G
that you really loved me, true.
#5.
G                     C
Lord above me knows I love you.
It was He who brought me through.
                        F
When my way was darkest night, 

                             G
He would shine His brightest light,

                            C
When I was trying to get to you.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
