Way Down Deep

Vern Gosdin


Tom: D

D                            G         D
This highway of heartache is rocky and rough
                A7        D
And I learned a long time ago
                              G        D
You can't build a fire in the ashes of love 
                A7           D
And roses don't bloom in the snow
 
[Chorus]
            G
Down deep inside my soul
      D                    A7
Where once it was cold and dark 
      D         G           D
I can feel your love take a hold
         A7         D
Way down deep in my heart 

[Verse 2]
                         G          D
You were my light in the darkest of days
                    A7          D
Though storm clouds were raging within
                      G             D
Slowly but surely the clouds rolled away
                   A7        D
And the sun started shining again
 
[Chorus]
            G
Down deep inside my soul
      D                    A7
Where once it was cold and dark 
      D         G           D
I can feel your love take a hold
         A7         D
Way down deep in my heart 

(Key Change - walk up to E)

[Outro]
            E
Down deep inside my soul
      A                    B7
Where once it was cold and dark 
      E         A           E
I can feel your love take a hold
         B7         E
Way down deep in my heart
