Intro
Slowly A, G, Bm7, FM7, G

1st Verse
A G A C#m
Every mile of this highway, Every turn in this road
Bm7+4(open E) F#m7(F#) FM7 G
Takes me away, Leads me astray
A G A C#m
Every night there's a quiet moment, and in that moment I wake
Bm7 Fm7 FM7 G
I pray to the stars, shining above, that I could wake with you in my arms

I never thought I'd see you again

Won't let your memories die

2nd Verse
A G A C#m
Every night I remember, the love we once shared
Bm F#M7 FM7 G
The hot summer nights, cold winter mornings
A G A C#m
There's never been another, as exciting as you
Bm F#m7
So crazy and wild, foolish and blue
FM7 G
Why are you returning to me
FM7 G
Every night in every dream
FM7 G
You've seemed to a cast, a spell on my sleep
