A Dylan Classic, and covered by Elvis pretty well too.
C/F means keep playing C, but hammer on the F chord at the same time.
C C/F C C/F C
If today was not an endless highway,
C C/F C C/F C
If tonight was not a crooked trail,
C/F G C C/F C
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time,
C/F G C C/F C
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all.
C C/F G C C/F C
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
C C/F G C C/F C
if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
C C/F G C C/F C
Yes, and only if she was lyin' by me,
C/F . . . G7 . . . C C/F C
I'd lie in my bed once again.
C C/F C C/F C
I can't see my reflection in the waters,
C C/F C C/F C
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain,
C/F G C C/F C
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps,
C/F G C C/F C
Or can't remember the sound of my own name.
C C/F G C C/F C
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
C C/F G C C/F C
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
C C/F G C C/F C
Only if she was lyin' by me,
C/F . . . G7 . . . C C/F C
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
C C/F C C/F C
There's beauty in the silver, singin' river,
C C/F C C/F C
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky,
C/F G C C/F C
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
C/F G C C/F C
That I remember in my true love's eyes.
C C/F G C C/F C
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
C C/F G C C/F C
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
C C/F G C C/F C
Only if she was lyin' by me,
C/F G C C/F C
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
