[A] [D] [E] [A]
If today was not [D] an endless [A] highway
If tonight was not [D] a crooked [A]
trail
If [D] tomorrow [E] wasn't such a [A] long time
[D] Then lonesome would [E] mean nothing to you at [A] all
Yes, [D] and only if [E] my own true love [A] was waiting
And [D] if I could hear [E] his heart [A] softly pounding
Only [D] if [E] he was [A] lying by me
Then [D] I'd lie in [E] my bed [A] once again
I can't see my reflection [D] [A] in the water
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain
I [D]
can't hear [E] the echo of [A] my footsteps
Or [D] can't remember [E] the sound of my [A] own name
Yes, [D] and only if [E] my own true love [A] was waiting
And [D] if I could [E] hear his heart [A] softly pounding
[D] Only if [E] he was [A] lying by me
Then [D] I'd lie in [E] my bed [A] once again

[D] [A] [D]
[E] [A] [D]
[E] [A] There's [B]
beauty in the silver [E] [B] singing river
There's beauty in the sunrise [E] in [B] the sky
[E] But none of these and [F#] nothing else can [B] touch the beauty
That I [E] remember in my [F#] true love's [B]
eyes
[E] Yes, and only if my [F#] own true [B] love was waiting
And if [E] I could hear his [F#] heart [B] softly pounding
[E] Only if [F#] he was lying [B] by me
[E] Then I'd lie [F#] in my [E] bed once [B] again
[E] [F#] [B]
