B
I've walked though every town
     E
Saw fortunes lost and found
     F#
And when your trail failed I walked holes
            B
In both my soles

Chorus:
B
But I don't expect you back
        E
You're somewhere making tracks
              F#
I crossed the burning bridges
And walked through miles of sand
Met the lawless and the law
But you beat all I ever saw

    B
I dreamed a million miles
  E
About your eyes and smiles
            F#
I tried to love the best
                          B
And to turn from all the rest

Chorus:
But I’d scan the skies for you
And I only saw your hue
They threw away your mould
You were made of frozen gold
And your heart would never thaw
You beat all I ever saw
