Intro: D
D
I've been up and down, left and right
And wrong so many times
Both sides of the winding road, straight
B
Down the center line
G
I've crossed paths with the devil
Em A D
With an angel on my side
Always
The first time that I saw you
I knew you were the one
'Cause when I walked beside you
I was walking in the sun
And like a fool, I ran
Like a lonesome highway runs
Always
Chorus:
B G
I've had my life together now at least a thousand times
D A A Bb
But it seems satisfaction never was a friend of mine
B
The way we laughed, the way we cried
G
And how it hurt to say goodbye
D A A Bb B
How long can I keep missing you this way?
G D
Always
I sat and watched a tall oak drop acorns at my feet
And thought about the good times, and how good they used to be
And then I watched your memory scatter like dry leaves
Always
Instrumental: B G B G D
Now the wind fades to a whisper, but still I hear your name
I guess that some things in this life are never gonna change
Though every day is different, my love for you remains
Always
Chorus:
B G
I've had my life together now at least a thousand times
D A A Bb
But it seems satisfaction never was a friend of mine
B
The way we laughed, the way we cried
G
And how it hurt to say goodbye
D A A Bb B
How long can I keep missing you this way?
G B
Always
G
Always
