| If today was n | ot an endless h | ighway |
| G | C/G | G | |
| If tonight was not a | crooked | trail |
| C | G | |
| If | tomorrow wasn't such a | long time |
| C | D | G | |
| Then | lonesome would | mean nothing to | you at all |
| C | D | G | |
| Yes, and | only if my | own true love was | waitin' |
| C | D | G | |
| Yes, and | if I could hear her | heart a-softly | poundin' |
| C | D | G | |
| Only if | she was lyin' | by me |
| C | D | G | |
| Then I'd | lie in my | bed once a | gain. |
| I can't see my reflection in the water |
| I can't speak the sounds that show no pain |
| I can't hear the echo of my footsteps |
| Or can't remember the sound of my own name |
| There's beauty in the silver, singing river |
| There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky |
| But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty |
| That I remember in my true love's eyes. This song is from PJ's Guitar Chords & Lyrics site |
