Intro: Em Am B7 Am (2x) 

Em               Am 
I was on a road        to the south of nowhere 
B7                                      Em 
   She turned to me and looked into my eyes 
Em                  Am 
I was on the path       that lead to somewhere 
B7                                     Em 
   The path between me my eyes and her mind 

Em 
I got to go, I got to go, she said 
Am 
   I got to go, I got to go, she said 
B7                             Em 
   On the path that was on her mind 

        Em                          Am 
I said: Wait, wait a minute, don't   leave like that 
               B7                                     Em 
You can't just do whatever pops in your head one at a time 
Em                                                Am 
Some people have their own ideas about what they    need to do 
            B7                                  Em 
And she was one of those people, I'm trying to tell you 

Interlude: Em Am B7 Em (3x) 

Em                                          Am 
Couldn't help but think that her sister was    not of the same mind 
          B7                                                   Em 
She had a different point of view and looked at life in a different way 
Em                                      Am 
And she was gone living somewhere else,   somewhere far away 
B7                                           Em 
   So what I'm left with is what I've got to deal with 

Em                                        Am 
But that's okay, I'm alright with that,   I've heard that counts before the dent 
B7                                               Em 
   Write to me and I did the best that I could 
Em                                           Am 
I can't help but wonder and dream by myself,    sit alone with all those books on my shelf 
          B7                                       Em 
And think   about the people that lived before me   and all that they could do that I can't 

Interlude: Em Am B7 Em (2x) 

Em                                           Am 
As we drove along I couldn't help but try to stifle my tongue 
                          B7                                  Em 
And try to say the words    what will, what will become of me? 
Em                                     Am 
The door opened on my side of the car    and I was pushed to the ground 
B7                                         Em 
   The smile on her face, she said: Let it be 

Em                               Am 
The ice was cold on my face and    there was no shoes on my feet 
B7                           Em 
   Exhaust in my mouth for days 
Em               Am 
Me and God alone   staring at each other hopes again 
B7                              Em 
 Oh Lord, what will become of me?
