Its A Long Rocky Road

It's a long rocky road that has no turning
                             G7
When the one you love proves untrue
         C              F           
You just sit home alone by your telephone
C                         G             C
Crying your heart out for someone who's untrue



It's a long rocky road that has no turning
                               G7
Teardrops on my pillow tell me so
        C                     F            
There's no use in me saying I haven't been praying
C                            G             C
For something I treasure and know I cannot hold


   F                       C
Be faithful little darling that's what I use to say
F                         D7                    G7
But you paid no attention you just went on your way


          C
Oh it's a long rocky road that has no turning
                              G7
This yearning dear I hold for you
        C                    F            
There's no use of me sighing no use of me crying
C                          G            C
I'll travel alone for I'm lost without you



Instrumental, basically a full verse played.
