Verse: 
          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 
 
Verse2: 

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 


     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    G     D 
How long can I keep missing you this way?         Always  
 
Verse3: 

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

Verse4: 
 
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 
 

  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    G      
How long can I keep missing you this way?         Always

    Always
