                        E
I've been travling over mountains
E
Even through the valley's too
                     A
I've been travling night and day
                          B7
I've been running all the way
                      E
Baby, trying to get to you
                       E
Ever since I read your letter
E
Where you said you loved me true
                   A
I've been travling night and day
                          B7
I've been running all the way
                      E
Baby, trying to get to you

E7                     A
When I read your loving letter
                       E
Then my heart began to sing
                      A
There were many miles between us
                       B7   Tacet
But they didn't mean a thing

                       E
I  had to try to reach you baby
E
In spite of all you put me through
                     A
I've been travling night and day
                          B7
I've been running all the way
                      E
Baby, trying to get to you

E7                                  A
Well there's nothing that could hold me here
                                E
Or that could keep me away from you
                       A
When your loving letter told me
                         B7
That you really loved me true

                          E
Oh, Lord above he knows I love you
E
It was he who brought me through
                        A
When my way was dark as night
                            B7
It would shine as bright as light
                           E
When I was trying to get to you

E7                     A
When I read your loving letter
                       E
Then my heart began to sing
                      A
There were many miles between us
                       B7
But they didn't mean a thing

                          E
Oh, Lord above he knows I love you
E
It was he who brought me through
                        A
When my way was dark as night
                            B7
It would shine as bright as light
                           E    E A E A B7
When I was trying to get to you
