This is probably my all time favorite Elvis performed tune.  I saw this
originally on an unedited 'One Night With You' video tape.  This is the
show where they are all in a circle and Elvis is wearing black leather. I
got one of the verses from a Sun Sessions collections as he skipped it on
the video tape.  If you've seen this tune performed on this video then you
know why Elvis is the King!!! I put this down without my guitar in my hand
but I think I've got it.  If not listen to it and that will clear things
up.  Better yet, get a copy of that video!!!

Even through the valley's too
Tacet                     AI've (x02220@1)been travlin night and day
                          B7I've (x21202@1)been runnin all the way
                      EBaby, (022100@1)tryin to get to you

Where you said you loved me true
I've been travlin night and day
I've been runnin all the way
Baby, tryin to get to you

E7 (020130@1)                   AWhen (x02220@1)I read your lovin letter
                       EThen (022100@1)my heart began to sing
                      AThere (x02220@1)were many miles between us
                       B7 (x21202@1) Tacet
But they didn't mean a thing.


I just had to reach you baby
In spite of all you put me through
I've been travlin night and day
I've been runnin all the way
Baby, tryin to get to you

If I had to do it over
That's exactly what I'd do
And I'd travel night and day
And I'd still run all the way
Baby tryin to get to you

E7 (020130@1)                                AWell (x02220@1)there's nothin that could hold me here
                                EOr (022100@1)that could keep me away from you
                       AWhen (x02220@1)your lovin letter told me
                         B7That (x21202@1)you really loved me true.


Lord above he knows I love you
It was he who brought me through
When my way was dark as night
It would shine as bright as light
When I was tryin to get to you.

Mahazgnoitche!!!
