            C#              F#
Baby, look down, look down that lonesome road
   C#
Before you travel, travel on

Look up, look up and see your maker
Before Gabriel blows his horn

A#m                          Fm
Life gets weary when you're carrying such
a heavy load
A#m                  Fm
Traveling down that lonesome road

Baby, look down, look down that lonesome road
Before you travel on, travel on

Life gets weary when you're carrying such a load
Traveling down that lonesome road

True love, true love, what have I done?
For you to treat me, you to treat me so

Well, you made me walk and you made me talk
Like I never, never, never, never done before

True love, true love, what have I done?
Well, for you to treat me, you to treat me so

You made me to walk and you made me to talk
Like I never, never, never, never done before

Never done before
Like I never, never done before
Like I never done before
