Written by Bob McDill & Allen Reynolds
Recorded by Don Williams
Capo on 4
[Intro]
G  C  G  C
What a Gtime to Cturn your back on someone
What a Gday to Cbe without a Gfriend
What a Gshame when Cno one seems to bother
GWho will offer shelter to Ccandles in the Gwind?
[Chorus]
And it Gfollows we are Conly helpless Gchildren
Ever changing D/F#like Emsunlight through the Dtrees
It's a Glong Bmroad we must Ccling to one an- Gother
Help yourselves to each Cother, that's the Dway it's meant to Gbe
[Solo]
C G C
And it's Gsaid that Clife is like a ladder
Just a Gdream we're Creaching for the Gstars
Can't you Gsee how Clittle really matters?
GWe are only searching for Cwhat we really Gare
[Chorus]
And it Gfollows we are Conly helpless Gchildren
Ever changing D/F#like Emsunlight through the Dtrees
It's a Glong Bmroad we must Ccling to one an- Gother
Help yourselves to each Cother, that's the Dway it's meant to Gbe
[Solo]
D/F# Em G C D
It's a Glong Bmroad we must Ccling to one an- Gother
Help yourselves to each Cother, that's the Dway it's meant to Gbe
[Outro]
