[Intro]
 Bb   F   Gm   Ebx2
[Verse]
InBbgest, where it gFoes, noGmbody sees but me
So pEberfect and so sweet
But the rBbest, feels incomplFete
Like the rGmabbit’s foot I keep
In the locEbket, with no key
And I Bbcan’t take it, I can’t take this woFrld without
This world without you
 GmI can’t take it, I can’t take it on my oEbwn
On my own
[Chorus] 
On these rFoads
Out of Gmlove, so it gEboes
How it fBbeels when we fEball, when we fFold
How we lGmose control, on these rEboads
How it sBbings as it gEboes
Flight of Bbfield, driving Ebsnow
Knows the cFold
Ran round the wGmailing world
[Verse]
   BbAnd what’s a song wFithout you?
   GmWhen every song I write is aEbbout you
   BbWhen I can’t hold myself wFithout you
   GmAnd I can’t change the day I Ebfound you
[Chorus]
On these rFoads
Out of lGmove, so it gEboes
How it fBbeels when we Ebfall, when we fFold
How we lGmose control, on these rEboads
How it sBbings as it gEboes
Flight of Bbfield, driving sEbnow
Knows the cFold
Out of lGmove, so it gEboes
How it fBbeels when we fEball, when we fFold
How we lGmose control, on these rEboads
How it sBbings as it gEboes
Flight of Bbfield, driving sEbnow
Knows the cFold
Ran round the wGmailing world
Gm (End)

[Intro]

Bb F Gm Eb

[Verse]

Bb F Gm

Ingest, where it goes, nobody sees but me

So perfect and so sweet

Bb F

But the rest, feels incomplete

Like the rabbit’s foot I keep

In the locket, with no key

Bb F

And I can’t take it, I can’t take this world without

This world without you

Gm Eb

I can’t take it, I can’t take it on my own

On my own

[Chorus]

On these roads

Gm Eb

Out of love, so it goes

Bb Eb F

How it feels when we fall, when we fold

Gm Eb

How we lose control, on these roads

Bb Eb

How it sings as it goes

Bb Eb

Flight of field, driving snow

Knows the cold

Ran round the wailing world

[Verse]

Bb F

And what’s a song without you?

Gm Eb

When every song I write is about you

Bb F

When I can’t hold myself without you

Gm Eb

And I can’t change the day I found you

[Chorus]

On these roads

Gm Eb

Out of love, so it goes

Bb Eb F

How it feels when we fall, when we fold

Gm Eb

How we lose control, on these roads

Bb Eb

How it sings as it goes

Bb Eb

Flight of field, driving snow

Knows the cold

Gm Eb

Out of love, so it goes

Bb Eb F

How it feels when we fall, when we fold

Gm Eb

How we lose control, on these roads

Bb Eb

How it sings as it goes

Bb Eb

Flight of field, driving snow

Knows the cold

Ran round the wailing world

Gm (End)
