Lyrics

Down the Road
Words & Music By: Danny McIntosh. / Wayne Murphy © 2007

Verse 1
[G] This life?s a road you pave as you go. Its a [D] hot black top or a old dirt road
It [C] Depends on who you know.
[G] And these names and faces you leave on the side will [D] tilt there hat when you pass bye.
[C] It's hard not to cry.
[Em] To chase these dreams you gotta break a few [C] hearts,
[Em] If you can sleep at night, well that?s a pretty good [C] start.

Chorus
[G] I'll say my prayers and pay my debts, and I'll [D] pave this road with my regrets
I'm [C] moving on, moving on
[G] and I'll save my soul for the one for me, not the [D] these broken hearts still yet to be
I'm [C] moving on, moving on, [G] down the road. [D] [C]

Verse 2
In a small framed house with a front porch swing, in my home town they still know my name.
It still feels the same.
And we still get together just like before, I don't get the chance much any more.
Reminds me who I'm singing for.
This road I'm on don't bring me home to much
But, a few phone calls just might be enough.

Chorus

Bridge
[Em] I'll say my prayers up on this [C] stage tonight,
[Em] Lord give me the strength to see [C] past these lights.
[Em] I've come a long on this road [C] I've walked down.
[Em] But it still leads back to that [C] dusty little town.

Chorus
