                  This is just a rough sketch, but it should allow you to approximate
both versions of this song.

      Intro: G5 (4x)
      Verse:
G5                              A5             C(2x)
      Did I tell you, about the dark lonely road
G5                                                                              A5                C5                           D5
      I was counting my steps as I made my way home
G5                                                                                                A5                                                                                    C(2x)
      Days are nothing but time on your hands, weighing on me
D5                                                A5    C5
             came to my end
D5                A5    C5
                                     undecided
D5                                                A5                                        C5                                                      D(2x)
Whether to count what I felt against what I could say..
                                                            G5                              D5        C5            D5
I try not to wander,                         or to tell you that
G5                                          D5                                    C5            D5                        G5                              D5
I'm not willing to wait when deep in my Heart I'm willing
C5                 D5                                          G5                                  D5                    C5
D5                              G(4x)
Hearts still willing, my brain's impatient my hearts still willing to
wait

Verse 2:  Our love is, so important to me, starts wherever you land
walks right over to me.  Days are nothing but time inbetween, obviously.
so unwary, or uncaring, I try not to be part of that and that's easy to
say but but I try not to wander...
(Guitar solo)
For the final verse, skip right to the pre-chorus part
Verse 3:  There's a moment, to discover, no one can take all the blame
and it's finally clear I try not to wander...

      That should get you started.
