No capo
[Chorus]
          D    G   D    C    Em  C  Am  G C/G G
Walk down that lonesome road all by yourself
      G/F#      Em             C    G  C D
Don't turn your head back over your shoulder
    Am   Em      C        G             D      C               Em   F F   C   C
And only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon is shining high above the trees
[Verse]
         G       D  Em     C    Am G   C/G G
If I had stopped to listen once or twice
  G/F#   Em     Am Em    D   C      G  D
If I had closed my mouth and opened my eyes
         Am     G  D    C   Am     G  Em
If I had cooled my head and warmed my heart
    C      Em F    F    C C
I'd not be on this road tonight
C                    F          Am      Em    D       G
Carry on, (carry on) never mind feeling sorry for yourself
   Am                         A#  F    F
It doesn't save you from your troubled mind
[Chorus]
          D    G   D    C    Em  C  Am  G C/G G
Walk down that lonesome road all by yourself
      G/F#      Em             C    G  C D
Don't turn your head back over your shoulder
    Am   Em      C        G             D      C               Em   F F   C   C
And only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon is shining high above the trees
