Tune Down 1/2 Step
Verse I:
I'm [G]sitting down by the highway[C]
Down by that highway side[G].[C][G]
[C]Everybody's going somewhere
Riding just as fast as they can ri[G]de.[C][G]
[D]I guess they've got a lot to do
[Em]Before they can rest [C]assured their [C]lives[D]
Are justified.[C]
Pray to God for me,[G] Baby
[C]He can let me slide.[G][D]
Verse II:
Cause I've been [G]up and down this highway[C]
Far as my eyes can se[G]e.[C][G]
[C]No matter how fast I run
I can never seem to get away from m[G]e.[C][G]
[D]No matter where I am
[Em]I can't help fe[C]eling I'm just a [G]day away
[D] [C]
Now, I'm running h[G]ome, Baby[C]
Like a river to the s[G]ea.[D]
Refrain:
Baby, if you can [G]see me
Out across this [C]wilderness
There's just [G]one thing
I was [D]hoping you might guess.
Baby, you can [Em]free me
Al[D]l in the power of your[C/D] sweet tender[G]ness.[D]
Yeah, yeah!!
Chorus:
I can [G]see it in your eyes
[C]You've got those bright, baby [G]blues[C].[G]
[C]You don't see what you've got to gain
But you don't like to l[G]ose[C].[G]
[D]You watch yourself from the sidelines
[Em]Like your life was a [C]game you don't mind [G]playing
To [D]keep yourself am[C]used.
I don't mean to be c[G]ruel, Baby
[C]But you're looking con[G]fused.[D]
Refrain II:
Baby, if you can hear me
Turn down your radio.
There's just one thing
I want you to know.
When you've been near me
I felt the love stirring in my soul
Yeah, Yeah!! Yes I have!!

Verse III:
It's so [G]hard to come by[C] that feeling of pe[G]ace.[C][G]
(spoken) This friend of mine said
"Close your eyes, try a few [G]of [C]the[G]se."
[D]I thought I was flying like a bird
[Em]So far above my sorrow
But when I [G]looked down
I was [D]standing on my k[C]nees.
Now, I need someone to [G]help me[C]
Someone to help me, [G]please.[D]
Final Refrain:
Baby, if you [G]need me
Like I [C]know I need you.
There's just [G]one thing
I'll [D]ask you to do
Take my hand and [Em]lead me
To the [D]hole in your [C]garden wall[C/D]
And pull me [G]through.[C][G]
[C]Pull me t[G]hrough....
