"There's No Way"
By: Alabama
Written by: Lisa Palas/Will Robinson/John Jarrard
Album: 40 Hour Week
Key: Eb
This is just another superb love song that Alabama has taken to the
Number 1 spot in their illustrious career. This is an ideal song to
put in your stereo during candlelight dinners or quiet times spent
with the one you love.
Capo 1st Fret
Here is how I play the opening piano solo on guitar. It's
not exactly how it's supposed to be, but it's close.

1st Verse:
As I la[D]y by your side [A]and hold you[D] tonight,
I [F#m]want you to understand[G],[A]
This lo[D]ve that I feel[A] is so right [D]and so real,
And I rea[F#m]lize how lucky I am.[A]
And should you ev[G]er wonder if my love is tr[Bm]ue,
There's some[G]thing that I wanna m[D]ake clear t[G]o you.[A]
Chorus:
[A]There's no way [Bm]I could make it[G] without you,[D]
[D]There's no way[Bm] that I'd e[G]ven try,[A]
[A]If I[Bm] had to survi[A]ve, without you i[Bm]n my life,
I [G]know I wouldn't last a day,[Em]
[Em]Oh baby, the[A]re's no way.
(Repeat opening riff)
2nd Verse:
It means so m[D]uch to me, whene[A]ver I see,[D]
That "wan[F#m]ting me look" in your eyes,[G][A]
[D]I don't know how [A]I could do withou[D]t,
[F#m]Holding you close every night.[A]
I've wa[Bm]ited so long just to have you[G] to hold,
And no[G]w that I've got you[D], I'll never le[G]t go.[A]
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
[Bm]I never knew until you, [G]what I was missing,[F#m]
Now you say f[Bm]orever, and I find my [G]heart is listening.[A]
[A]Yes I'm listening.
(Repeat Chorus)
