D                               A            
Headin’ out this morning with plans to stay a while
Cadd9                                    G
It’s hard to leave familiar things I’ll see again in time
D                               A
I live out of a suitcase; the road I can’t deny
Cadd9                                  G
I’ll risk it all and if I fall, I’ll take it all in stride

Em           D            Cadd9         A
A voice is callin’ out, showin’ me the way
Em           D                Cadd9           A
There’s no room for doubt, the price I gotta pay

D        Em       Cadd9              G
Every highway, travelin’ miles and miles
Em                 Cadd9              A
Searchin’ for the road that leads to you
D       Em      Cadd9         G
Do it my way, leaving love behind
Em               Cadd9              A
Try to find the road that leads to you

D                           A
Meeting lots of people, shake a lot of hands
Cadd9                                          G
Feeling strange and the truth remains it’s so hard to find a friend
D                                A
I ask the same old question and get the same reply
Cadd9                                     G
It forever seems I’ll chase that dream until the day I die

Em           D                 Cadd9         A
Home I’ll find somehow, with pictures in my head
Em              D            Cadd9           A
I just won’t think about the words I left unsaid

D        Em       Cadd9              G
Every highway, travelin’ miles and miles
Em                 Cadd9              A
Searchin’ for the road that leads to you
D       Em      Cadd9         G
Do it my way, leaving love behind
Em               Cadd9              A
Try to find the road that leads to you

Solo:  D Em Cadd9 G (x3)

Em              D                  Cadd9         A
Oh, home I’ll find somehow, with pictures in my head
Em           D           Cadd9            A
And God be with me now until I reach the end

D        Em       Cadd9              G
Every highway, travelin’ miles and miles
Em                 Cadd9              A
Searchin’ for the road that leads to you
D       Em      Cadd9         G
Do it my way, leaving love behind
Em               Cadd9              A
Try to find the road that leads to you... yeah, oh

D        Em       Cadd9              G
Every highway, travelin’ miles and miles
Em                 Cadd9              A
Searchin’ for the road that leads to you
