[Verse]
            F                        C
And when I crossed that Mississippi line
              F                 C
You couldn't help but cross my mind
            F                C
With every passing sight or stone
            F              C
There your memory danced alone
 
 
[Chorus]
               F                      C
But I'm still yours and you're still mine
             Am             C
Through the fading ends of time
         F              C
Despite burdens deep below
         Am             C
I'll be with you as you go
 
         F                 C
All the way, Lord all the way
         F                C
I'll be with you all the way
 
               F              C
And where you lay is where I lay
         F                C
I'll be with you all the way
 
 
[Instrumental]

C  F  C  Am  C
 
 
[Verse]
               F                  C
When age like poison steals your prime
         F                 C
I'll be there to hold the line
            F                 C
With every wrinkle, shade of grey
         F                C
I'll be with you all the way
 
 
[Chorus]
                  F                      C
'Cause I'm still yours and you're still mine
             Am             C
Through the fading ends of time
         F              C
Despite burdens deep below
         Am             C
I'll be with you as you go
 
         F                 C
All the way, Lord all the way
         F                C
I'll be with you all the way

Chords Used: C, F, Am

Intro & Verse Progressions

The song begins with an intro that sets the tone, utilizing a rotation of C and F chords.
This same progression is used throughout the verses, emphasizing the narrative of
unwavering love and the passage of time.
Chorus

The chorus introduces Am into the mix but maintains the foundational C and F chords,
reinforcing the song's main message of commitment "all the way."
Instrumental Sections

Instrumental sections follow a similar chord pattern as the rest of the song, with the
addition of Am, providing a moment for reflection and emphasizing the song's emotional resonance.
Playing Tips:

Strumming Pattern: For a song like this, a steady, gentle strumming pattern can effectively
convey the tenderness of the lyrics. A simple down-down-up-up-down-up pattern can work
well, giving each chord progression a full and resonant sound.

Dynamics: Pay attention to the song's emotional dynamics. The verses should be played
with a sense of introspection, while the chorus can be slightly more pronounced to
underscore the declaration of "all the way."

Emotion Through Rhythm: Let the rhythm breathe life into the song. Slight pauses
before the chorus or a softening of the strumming during more reflective lines can
add depth to your performance.

Chord Transitions: Practice the transitions between the C, F, and Am chords.
For beginners, the F chord can be challenging because it typically requires a barre.
If you're struggling with the F chord, you can use a simpler version (x33211 or xx3211
that doesn't require barring all the strings.

Vocal Emphasis: If you're singing along, match the emotion of your voice with the guitar playing.
The simplicity of the chord progression allows for vocal nuances to stand out,
highlighting the song's heartfelt lyrics.
