It's a [Am]long, lonely road
That I've [G]walked on my own
Never [G]thought I'd end up in this [F]place (Ooh-ooh)
I went [Am]fast, I went slow
Then I [G]gave up all hope
'Cause I [G]know, either way, it's the [F]same (Ooh-ooh)
And [Am]I'm not tryna find some[G]body
'Cause [G]no one else but you will [F]do (Ooh-ooh)
Yeah, the [Am]real thing is gold
How I [G]wish I could hold you
I wasted [Am]all of these days [G/B]and [C]nights
Trying to [F]chase all these empty [C]highs
But I had to [Am]go to my worst [G/B]so I'd [C]know
That I just needed [G]you oh-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh
As I [Am]look out at the mor[G/B]ning [C]sun
There's no es[F]cape from the things I've [C]done
And out of [Am]everything I've lost, [G/B]now I [C]know
That I just needed [G]you Oh-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh
And darling, that's the [Am]truth [C] [G]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh
I don't [Am]lie anymore
In a [G]heap on the floor
'Cause I'm [G]clear on the road I must [F]take (Ooh-ooh)
And [Am]I'm not tryna find some[G]body
'Cause [G]no one else but you will [F]do (Ooh-ooh)
I'm [Am]getting close, stumbling over
[G]Everything I need to say to you
I wasted [Am]all of these days [G/B]and [C]nights
Trying to [F]chase all these empty [C]highs
But I had to [Am]go to my worst [G/B]so I'd [C]know
That I just needed [G]you oh-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh

That I just needed [G]you Oh-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh
And darling, that's the [Am]truth [C] [G]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-[F]oh
I will [Am]search with, every [G]fiber
If you're [G]out there, leave a [F]light on
'Cause the [Am]distance is getting [G]wider
And I [G]know I've gotta [F]find ya
I wasted [Am]all of these days [G/B]and [C]nights
Trying to [F]chase all these empty [C]highs
But I had to [Am]go to my worst [G/B]so I'd [C]know
