[Intro]
C-G-Am-Em-F-C-G x2
[Verse]
C G Am Em
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
F C G
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
C G Am Em
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
F C
Can't help but wish that I was there
G
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah
[Chorus]
C G Am G
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
F C
to hold her when I'm not around,
G
when I'm much too far away
C G Am G
We all need that person who can be true to you
F C
But I left her when I found her
G
And now I wish I'd stayed
F G
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
Em Am G F
I'm missing you again oh no
C
Once again
[Verse]
C G Am Em
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
F C
There's no one here while the city sleeps
G
and all the shops are closed
C G Am Em
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
F C G
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah
[Chorus]
C G Am G
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
F C
to hold her when I'm not around,
G
when I'm much too far away
C G Am G
We all need that person who can be true to you
F C
I left her when I found her
G
And now I wish I'd stayed
F G
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
Em Am G F
I'm missing you again oh no
C
Once again
[Bridge]
Am G F C
Some search, never finding a way
Am G F C
Before long, they waste away
Am G F C
I found you, something told me to stay
Am G F C
I gave in, to selfish ways
Dm G
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade...
C G Am Em
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
F C G
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
[Chorus]
C G Am G
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
F C

G
when I'm much too far away
C G Am G
We all need the person who can be true to you
F C
I left her when I found her
G
And now I wish I'd stayed
F G
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
Em Am G F
I'm missing you again oh no
C
Once again
[Fade out]
