INTRO: D# Cm Fm A#
[A#]I've been traveling over [D#]mountains,
even through the valleys, too.
I've been traveling night and [G#]day,
running all the [A#]way, baby, trying to get to [D#]you.
[D#]Since I read your lovin' letter,
where you said you loved me, [D#7]true.
I've been traveling night and [G#]day,
running all the [A#]way, baby, trying to get to [D#]you.
CHORUS:
[D#7]Well, there's nothing that could [G#]hold me.
Or that could keep me away from [D#]you.
Since your loving letter [F]told me,
that you really loved me, [A#]true.
[A#]I just had to reach you, [D#]baby..
[D#]but after all that I've been through..
I've been travellin' night and [G#]day,
runnin' all the [A#]way, baby, trying to
get to [D#]you.
[D#]Well, if I had to do it over..
that's exactly what I'd [D#7]do.
I'd keep travellin' night and [G#]day,
runnin' all the [A#]way, baby, trying to
get to [D#]you.
CHORUS:
[D#]Well, since I read your lovin' [G#]letters..
then my heart began to [D#]sing.
There were many miles be[G#]tween us..
but they didn't [F]mean a [A#]thing.
[A#]Lord above me knows I [D#]love you.
[D#]It was He who brought me [D#7]through.
When my way was darkest [G#]night,
He would shine His brightest [A#]light,
when I was trying to get to [D#]you.[F] [A#] [D#]
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
