Intro: D
Verse:
I've been [D]up and down, left and right
And wrong so many times
Both sides of the winding road, straight
[B]Down the center line
I've [G]crossed paths with the devil
With an [Em]angel on my [A]side [D] always
Verse2:
The first time that I saw you, I knew you were the one
'Cause when I walked beside you, I was walking in the sun
And like a fool, I ran, like a lonesome highway runs
Always
Chorus:
I've [B]had my life together now at [G]least a thousand times
But it [D]seems satisfaction never [A]was a friend of mine[A][Bb]
The [B]way we laughed, the way we cried
And [G]how it hurt to say goodbye
How [D]long can I keep missing you this [A]way? [A] [Bb] [B] Al[G]ways[D]
Verse3:
I sat and watched a tall oak drop acorns at my feet
And thought about the good times, and how good they used to be
And then I watched your memory scatter like dry leaves
Always
Instrumental: B G B G D
Verse4:
Now the wind fades to a whisper, but still I hear your name
I guess that some things in this life are never gonna change
Though every day is different, my love for you remains
Always

How [D]long can I keep missing you this [A]way? [A] [Bb] [B] Al[G]ways
