One For The Road Chords

Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

DTree blows against my Awindow, there's a sBmtorm brewing in my hGeart,

 Watching crDedits roll on a lAate night T.V. sDhow,

 Lonely street light pAeeking through the cBmracks in my window shGade,

 After aDll that he's seen I woAnder if he truly kDnows,

 Did he watch her when she slaAmmed the door, like a hBmammer against the nGail,

DLeaving me in wAhat's become a loGnely prAison cDell.

Chorus 1

 I thought alGwaysD meant fAorever,

 I guess you coDuldn't play second fiGddle to my gAuitar,

 like an Bmold man drGinking down at the tEmavern,

 well I was oGne for the road and now you're hAeaded on back hDome.

Verse 2

DI met you at a pAarty, seems like oBmnly yesterGday,

 We were fDalling in love and liAving to chase our dDreams,

 I gave you flowers on VAalentines, and I Bmhad a strong feeling deep dGown insiDde,

 That someday we'd make a hAome and a fDamily,

 I'd say I'm sorry in a hAeartbeat if Bmyou would only lGet me,

 I could lDearn to forgive if yAou only fDorget.

 In a hotel room down in AAustin aBmfter another one night sGhow,

 I caDught your silhouette cAreeping down the street, unGder a mAoonlight gDlow,

 and as you took my hAand, Bmso went all my pGain,

 we sDtepped right off the plAatform and caGught the mAidnight trDain.

Chorus 2

 And I guess GalwaysD means forAever,

 And I wDon't make you play second fiGddle to my guAitar,

 Like an oBmld man dGrinking down at the tEmavern,

 We're Gone for the road and we're hAeaded on back hDome,

 Yeah oGne for the road and we're heAaded on back hDome,

GOne for the road and we're hAeaded on back hEmo--DmeG. A D
