Capo 1
[Verse 1]
N.C.
On the blue side of evenin'
N.C.
When the darkness takes control
N.C.
You start lookin' for a reason
N.C.
To take your lonesome on down the road
[Instrumental]
G Em C G
[Verse 2]
G
'Cause the night is filled with strangers
Em C G
All you need is one you know
G
And if she ain't the one you're after
Em C G
Keep on lookin' on down the road
[Chorus]
D C G
Though the miles lay long behind you
Em C G
You have still got miles to go
G
How's love ever gonna find you
Em C G
If it ain't here, it's down the road
[Instrumental]
G Em C G x 2
[Chorus]
D C G
Though the miles lay long behind you
Em C G
You have still got miles to go
G
How's love ever gonna find you
Em C G
If it ain't here, it's down the road
Em C G
Keep on lookin' on down the road
N.C.
On the blue side of evenin'
When the darkness takes control
