TWO HIGHWAYS
(L. Cordle)
sung by Ricky Skaggs
A / / / B7 / / / E / / / 2 / / /
A B
Two highways lay before me
E
Which one would I choose?
A B
Down one lane I'd find happiness
E
& down the other I would lose
A B
There is no one that I can trust
C#m A
I must decide alone
My decision is an awful one
B
Which road will take me home?
CHORUS:
A B7
In the mornin' would I wake to find
E
Down the wrong road I had gone?
A B7
Will I hear the melodies
E
I've searched for oh so long?
A B7
Only time will tell
C#m F#
If I have made a loser's choice
A
Hello sadness, cries my inner soul
C C7 E
Goodbye lover, moans my voice
Verse 2:
A B
Perils today are many
E
As I set out on my way
A B
If I lose your love, I know that I
E
Can't call it back someday
A B C#m A
Rambler, lonely rambler just calls any place his home
C C7 E
But Nashville's lights, how beautiful you shine
A / / / B / / / C#m / / / F# / / / 2 / / /
A / / / C / C7 / E / / / 2 / / /
Verse 3 (same pattern as verse 2):
Wishing now that you had found
A word or 2 to say
But the morning came & we both knew
My eyes gave it away
As I kissed your cheeks & said goodbye
I thought, Only time will tell
& you can't draw water from an empty well
(chorus)
A B (slow...)
Two highways lay before me
