Intro: C D G (2x) C D Em G Am Am C Cadd9 G C D G Two highways lay before me, which one will I choose C D G Down one lane I'd find happiness and down the other I would lose C D Am G Em There is no one that I can trust, I must decide alone C Cadd9 G My decision is an awful one, which road will take me home C D G In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone C D G Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long C D Em G Am Only time will tell if I have made a loser's choice C Cadd9 G And though sadness cries my inner soul, goodbye lover moans my voice C D G Perils, there are many, as I set out on my way C D G If I lose your love I know that I can call it back someday C D Em G Am Rambler, lonely rambler, just 'cause anyplace is home C Cadd9 G Nashville, lights how you have always shined C D G Wishing now that you had found a word or two to say C D G But the mornin' came and we both knew my eyes gave it away C D Em G Am As I kissed your cheeks and said goodbye I thought only time will tell C Cadd9 G And you can't draw water from an empty well C D G In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone C D G Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long C D Em G Am Only time will tell if I have made a loser's choice C Cadd9 G And though sadness cries my inner soul, goodbye lover moans my voice (x2)
