Intro - G - D = 4x's
(verse 1)
N[G]ever mind the str[D]uggle,
Never m[G]ind these tears I c[D]ry,
Through it [G]all I will stay hum[D]ble,
AS I k[G]eep a watchful e[A]ye,
For that sw[Bm]eeter ch[A]ange of for[G]tune,[A]
That's closer [G]now than it's been,
Where the,[Bm] memori[A]es that ha[G]unt me,[A]
are gonna someday [G]be my friend
When that l[D]ong strtch of l[Asus-A]onesome comes to an e[G]nd[-],[D] [-] [G] [-] [D]
(verse 2)
On s[G]ome crazy ri[D]ver but I s[G]till have cont[D]rol,
And I w[G]ill not surr[D]ender I'll stay t[G]rue to heart and s[A]oul,
There's a s[Bm]ea of love awaiting Down at the r[G]iver's end,
[Bm]There I'll drown my sorrow t[G]here I'll live again,
When that l[D]ong stretch of l[Asus-A]onesome come to an e[G]nd[-],[D] [-] [G] [-] [D]
(chorus)
Oh when that lo[A]ng stretch of lonesome fi[G]nally comes to an [D]end,
My heart belo[A]nging to someone it'll n[G]ever be longing ag[A]ain,
And the sh[Bm]adows that have dogged me Since I c[G]an't remember when,
Fi[Bm]nally give quarter to the sun[G]light on my skin,
When that lo[D]ng stretch of lon[A]esome comes to an [G]end[-],[D] [-] [G] [-] [D]
(lead chords - A - G - D - A - Bm - G - A)
(verse 3)
And the sh[Bm]adows that have dogged me since I c[G]an't remember when,
Fin[Bm]ally give quarter to the sun[G]light on my skin,
When that lo[D]ng stretch of lo[A]nesome,
When that [Bm]long stretch of l[G]onesome,
D A G - D - G - D = 4x's
When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end,
