🎸 Many A Long And Lonesome Highway chords by Rodney Crowell

Long & Lonesome Highway
Rodney Crowell



C             G
Yes I had a woman love me,  I gave her what there was there of me.
F               C
 And it was good as it could be.
                  G
Then I heard a wild world calling,  I saw a lone star falling,
F              C
 I caught a song, & set it free.


(Chorus)
          Am       C        Am      G
    And many a long & lonesome highway, lies before us as we go,
          F        C    Am      G            C
    And in the end, I'll do it my way.   Look for me, where the four winds blow.

              G
I believe in love & danger,  I believe the truth is stranger,
F                 C
 I believe that fear is much too strong.
                 G
I believe the best will find me,  when I leave the rest behind me,
F             C
 Out on the highway on my own.



          Am       C        Am      G
    And many a long & lonesome highway, lies before us as we go,
          F        C    Am      G            C
    And in the end, I'll do it my way.   Look for me, where the four winds blow.


(Bridge)
            Am       Em       Am
       And every night's a new beginning. Everyday, the world keeps spinning.
       Em                G
        Sometimes, it's hard to stand upon my own.
       F                   Am
        To the East, the moon comes showing.  To the West, there's dark clouds rolling.
       Em             G
        I'm by myself, but not a-lone no more.



C                   G
 My father on his death bed told me,  there's really nothing left to hold me,
F               C
 Though I was there he died alone.
                     G
It's going to take a fast train leaving,  to shake my world from grieving.
F                C
 I'll guess I'll go until it's gone.



          Am       C        Am      G
    And many a long & lonesome highway, lies be-fore us as we go,
          F        C    Am      G            C
    And in the end, I'll do it my way.   Look for me, where the four winds blow.
