"Lessons in Love, Hope and Faith Part 1: The Road," Sister Hazel 
CAPO 1
D
DThis life goes by so damn fast
GIt feels just like a blur
Of the plAaces we just drove on past
DThe people that we were.
DI set cruise control on my soul for wGay too long
And like the pavAement paves the road with strength
our Dlove it just stayed strong.
And I loGok back on all the choices that I madeD  
with so maGny exits off this highway.D  
When the wAeight of the world can be a heavy loadBm  
I'll stay with youA, here on the road.D  
D
DNow I've had a little and I've had a lot
GSometimes deserved the things I got.
I fAought like a fool for what I thought was gold.
DTold myself how it was gonna be
buGt most times you can't change a thing
So we prAomised to wear each other's ring
Duntil we both grow old.
And now I thGink back on all the choices that you madeD  
with so maGny exits off this highway.D  
When the wAeight of the world can be a heavy loadBm  
I'll stay with you, Ahere on the road.D  
I'll stay with you, Ahere on the road.D  
D, G, A

DPictures on the dashboard
of the oneGs we'll leave behind.
The Aseeds we planted on our way
Dtowards the finish line.
So I tDhank you now for everything,
I tGhank you for this life.
And tAhough we've seen some ups and downs,
it's bGeen one hell Aof a ride.
And I tGhink back on all the choices that we madeD  
with so maGny exits off this highway.A  
When the colGd dark night can feel so all aloneD  
I'll stay with you, Ahere on the road.D  
I'll stay with you, Ahere on the road.Bm  G

"Lessons in Love, Hope and Faith Part 1: The Road," Sister Hazel

CAPO 1

This life goes by so damn fast

It feels just like a blur

Of the places we just drove on past

The people that we were.

D G

I set cruise control on my soul for way too long

And like the pavement paves the road with strength

our love it just stayed strong.

G D

And I look back on all the choices that I made

G D

with so many exits off this highway.

A Bm

When the weight of the world can be a heavy load

A D

I'll stay with you, here on the road.

Now I've had a little and I've had a lot

Sometimes deserved the things I got.

I fought like a fool for what I thought was gold.

Told myself how it was gonna be

but most times you can't change a thing

So we promised to wear each other's ring

until we both grow old.

G D

And now I think back on all the choices that you made

G D

with so many exits off this highway.

A Bm

When the weight of the world can be a heavy load

A D

I'll stay with you, here on the road.

A D

I'll stay with you, here on the road.

D G A

, ,

Pictures on the dashboard

of the ones we'll leave behind.

The seeds we planted on our way

towards the finish line.

So I thank you now for everything,

I thank you for this life.

And though we've seen some ups and downs,

G A

it's been one hell of a ride.

G D

And I think back on all the choices that we made

G A

with so many exits off this highway.

G D

When the cold dark night can feel so all alone

A D

I'll stay with you, here on the road.

A Bm G

I'll stay with you, here on the road.

A A G Em D

Just me and you, here on the road
