It’s a (F)lone ly (C)road full of (Am)tired men. And you can (F)see it (G6)in their (C)fac es. And you’ll be (F)home in (C)spring, I can (Am)wait ’til (C)then. I (F)heard you’re (G6)on the (F)big train. And (F)all of this shall pass. This (F)lone li ness won’t last for long. I was n’t there to (F)take his (C)place. I was ten (G)thous and (F)miles a (C)way. So when you (F)hear my (C)voice, when you (Am)say my (C)name, may it (F)nev er (G6)be in (C)pain. And I don’t (F)want to (C)go but it’s (Am)time to (C)leave. You’ll be (F)on my (G6)mind, in my des ti (C)ny. And (F)I won’t fight in vain. I (F)love you just the same. Ooh. I could n’t know what’s (F)in your mind. But I saw the (G)pic tures, you’re (F)look ing fine. And there was a time when I stood in line for love, for love, for love. But I (F)let you go, oh, I let you go. And he fell a part with this bro ken heart and this (G)blood, this blood, this blood. Oh, it (F)drains from my skin and dust.
