[G]Take me down the [C]road I [G]know [C]Where we [G]wandered [C]long a[G]go [C]When we were [G]young and [C]yet to [G]know The [C]road that [D]lay be[G]fore us [G]When I, a young man [C]in my [G]prime [C]I never [G]seemed to [C]have the [G]time [C]To tell you [G]of the [C]way I [G]felt I [C]left it [D]up to [G]you Chorus And [D]quickly moves the [C]sands of [G]time [D]Now there are no [C]hills to [G]climb [C]I never [G]got to [C]know you [G]mind [C]I never [D]smelt the [G]roses [G]Working time and [C]sleeping [G]time [C]You never [G]ever [C]left my [G]mind [C]When I [G]stumbled [C]in the [G]dark I [C]left you [D]far be[G]hind me The [G]years may come, the [C]years may [G]go [C]Still I’m [G]sure I’ll [C]never [G]know [C]Why I [G]took the [C]road I [G]took The [C]road that [D]made the [G]difference Chorus Instrumental verse But [G]all roads come [C]to an [G]end [C]It’s a long, long [G]one that [C]has no [G]bend [C]We must [G]one day [C]meet a[G]gain And [C]mend the [D]bridge that’s [G]broken And [G]when the time has [C]come to [G]rest [C]I’ll find the [G]place that [C]I loved [G]best [C]Within your [G]loving [C]arms a[G]gain [C]Then I’ll [D]smell the [G]roses Chorus twice |
Song Words Without Chords
Take me down the road I know Where we wandered long ago When we were young and yet to know The road that lay before us When I, a young man in my prime I never seemed to have the time To tell you of the way I felt I left it up to you Chorus And quickly moves the sands of time Now there are no hills to climb I never got to know you mind I never smelt the roses Working time and sleeping time You never ever left my mind When I stumbled in the dark I left you far behind me The years may come, the years may go Still I’m sure I’ll never know Why I took the road I took The road that made the difference Chorus Instrumental verse But all roads come to an end It’s a long, long one that has no bend We must one day meet again And mend the bridge that’s broken And when the time has come to rest I’ll find the place that I loved best Within your loving arms again Then I’ll smell the roses Chorus twice |
