VERSE I :

G          D              Em                Bm
  A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
  C9               G            D
  Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find
G           D             Em                Bm
  While I recall all the words you spoke to me
  C9                       G
  Can't help but wish that I was there
       D
  Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

 

CHORUS :

G       D        Em            D
  Dear God, the only thing I ask of you
        C9                G
  Is to hold her when I'm not around
           D
  When I'm much too far away
G        D          Em              D
  We all need that person who can be true to you
        C9               G
  But I left her when I found her
      G
  And now I wish I'd stayed
              C9              D
  'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
      B7           Em    D  C9
  I'm missing you again, oh no...
        G
  Once again


VERSE II :

G                 D            Em              Bm
  There's nothing here for me, on this barren road
          C9                     G
  There's no one here while the city sleeps
      D
  And all the shops are closed
G                 D            Em                  Bm
  Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
  C9                 G            D
  Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

 

CHORUS :

G       D        Em            D
  Dear God, the only thing I ask of you
        C9                G
  Is to hold her when I'm not around
           D
  When I'm much too far away
G        D          Em              D
  We all need that person who can be true to you
        C9               G
  But I left her when I found her
      G
  And now I wish I'd stayed
              C9              D
  'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
      B7           Em    D  C9
  I'm missing you again, oh no...
        G
  Once again

BRIDGE :

Em      D7    C                G  D9
  Some search, never finding a way
Em        D7  C            G  D9
  Before long, they waste away
Em        D7  C                      G  D9
  I found you, something told me to stay
Em       D7 C            G  D9
  I gave in, to selfish ways


Am7                          D
  And how I miss someone to hold
  When hope begins to fade...

VERSE :

G          D               Em                Bm
  A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
  C9               G            D
  Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find

 

CHORUS :

G       D        Em            D
  Dear God, the only thing I ask of you
        C9                G
  Is to hold her when I'm not around
           D
  When I'm much too far away
G        D          Em              D
  We all need that person who can be true to you
        C9               G
  But I left her when I found her
      G
  And now I wish I'd stayed
              C9              D
  'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
      B7           Em    D  C9
  I'm missing you again, oh no...
        G
  Once again
