E    A/C#    Bm/D A/C# E

[Verse]
    E         A              E       A
If today was not an endless highway
    E                  A       Bm/D A/C# E
If tonight was not a crooked trail
      A      B             C#m7
If tomorrow wasn’t such a long time
      A                   B          B7    E
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all

[Chorus]
        A          B                  E
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
       A             B              E
If I could hear her heart a-softly poundin’
A         B           E      A
Only if she was lyin’ by me
         E         B7        E
Would I lie in my bed once again

[Verse]
         E         A              E       A
I can’t see my reflection in the water
          E        A                   Bm/D A/C# E
I can’t speak the sounds that show no pain
          A      B           C#m7
I can’t hear the echo of my footsteps
         A            B         B7     E
I can’t remember the sounds of my own name

[Chorus]
        A          B                  E
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
       A             B              E
If I could hear her heart a-softly poundin’
A         B           E      A
Only if she was lyin’ by me
         E         B7        Bm/D A/C# E
Would I lie in my bed once again

[Verse]
         E              A               E       A
There’s beauty in that silver, singin’ river
          E             A               Bm/D A/C# E
There’s beauty in that rainbow in the sky
              A               B                   C#m7
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
     A          B       B7        E
That I remember in my true love’s eyes

[Chorus]
        A          B                  E
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
       A             B              E
If I could hear her heart a-softly poundin’
A         B           E      A
Only if she was lyin’ by me
         E         B7        Bm/D A/C#
Would I lie in my bed once again

[Outro]
         E         B7        Bm/D A/C#  E
Would I lie in my bed once again
