I've been traveling over mountains,

even through the valleys, too.
                              D5
I've been traveling night and day,
                E5                           A5   
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.

Ever since I read your letter,

where you said you loved me, true.
                              D5
I've been traveling night and day,
                E5                           A5   A5
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.

CHORUS:
A5                      D5
When I read your lovin' letters..
                       A5
then my heart began to sing.
                        B5
there were many miles between us,
                       E5
but they didn't mean a thing.

(INTERLUDE:)

Well, if I had to do it over..

that's exactly what I'd do.
                     D5
I'd travel night and day, and I'd still 
            E5                           A5
run all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
                           D5
I kept traveling night and day,
                E5                           A5  A5
running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.

CHORUS:
A5                               D5
Well, there's nothing that could hold me.
                                A5
Or that could keep me away from you.
                        B5
When your loving letter told me,
                          E5
that you really loved me, true.

#5.
E5                     A5
Lord above me knows I love you.

It was He who brought me through.
                        D5
When my way was darkest night, 
                             E5
He would shine His brightest light,
                            A5
When I was trying to get to you.
