A# D# I've been traveling over mountains,
even through the valleys, too.
G# I've been traveling night and day, A# D# running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
#2.
D# Since I read your lovin' letter, D#7 where you said you loved me, true. G# I've been traveling night and day, A# D# running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
CHORUS:
D#7 G# Well, there's nothing that could hold me. D# Or that could keep me away from you. F Since your loving letter told me, A# that you really loved me, true.
#3.
A# D# I just had to reach you, baby.. D# but after all that I've been through.. G# I've been travellin' night and day, A# runnin' all the way, baby, trying to D# get to you.
#4.
D# Well, if I had to do it over.. D#7 that's exactly what I'd do. G# I'd keep travellin' night and day, A# runnin' all the way, baby, trying to D# get to you.
CHORUS:
D# G# Well, since I read your lovin' letters.. D# then my heart began to sing. G# There were many miles between us.. F A# but they didn't mean a thing.
#5.
A# D# Lord above me knows I love you. D# D#7 It was He who brought me through. G# When my way was darkest night, A# He would shine His brightest light, D# F A# D# when I was trying to get to you.
