Strum a measure each of the A and then D chord as shown below 
       Intro: A-D-A-D-A-D-A-D
                   AVerse (x02220@1)1:  I can hear that highway calling
                   D (xx0232@1)                                             A (x02220@1)        
          D (xx0232@1)            As I watch the sunrise crawling across her shoulder
                  A (x02220@1)            This is usually goodbye
                   D (xx0232@1)                                                    A (x02220@1) 
          D (xx0232@1)  
             And yet those words I just can't find here as I hold her

            Option: (Strum once) D (xx0232@1)            She's like no other women

             Option: (Strum once) E (022100@1)            That I have ever known before

                   (Strum once) D (xx0232@1)            And it ain't me to see the morning sun
                   E (022100@1)            From this side of the door
             A (x02220@1)                     D (xx0232@1)               F# (244322@1)  EChorus: (022100@1) Why aInt I running, Why aint I gone
             A (x02220@1)                             D (xx0232@1)                  F# (244322@1)   E (022100@1)            How does she hold me Without holding on
                               D (xx0232@1)                               E (022100@1)            In love or a fight, she's stronger than strong
                                       F# (244322@1)                E (022100@1)           D (xx0232@1)  
   
             Somethings not right if there aint nothing wrong
                      A (x02220@1)   D (xx0232@1)                           E (022100@1)            Its got me wondering,why aint I running
                               A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1)A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1)             Why aint I gone
                AVerse (x02220@1)2:  All those worlds I left behind me
                  D (xx0232@1)                                                  A (x02220@1)    
    D (xx0232@1)            Praying they would never find me and my freedom
                              A (x02220@1)                                   
             But if they stood right here beside me
             D (xx0232@1)                                                          A (x02220@1) 
   D (xx0232@1)            They would never recognize me for all that she's done

                       D (xx0232@1)            Once happiness was only
                           E (022100@1)            Whenever I was on my own
                           D (xx0232@1)            So now why do I feel lonely
                    E (022100@1)            Any time that I'm alone
