[Intro 1]
[C][G][Am][Em]
[F][C][G]
[C][G][Am][Em]
[F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]A lonely roa[G]d,
crossed [Am]another cold state [Em]line
[F]Miles away from [C]those I love
[G]purpose undefined
[C]While I rec[G]all
all the [Am]words you spoke to [Em]me
Can't [F]help but wish that [C]I was there
And [G]where I'd love to be, oh yeah

[Chorus 1]
[C]Dear God[G] the onl[Am]y thing I ask[G] of you is
To [F]hold her when I'm [C]not around
When I'm [G]much too far away
[C]We all nee[G]d
that [Am]person who can [G]be true to you
But I [F]left her when [C]I found her
And [G]now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm [F]lonely and I'm [G]tired
I'm [E]missing you a[Am]gain [G]oh [F]no

[Verse 2]
Once again
[C]There's nothing her[G]e
for me [Am]on this barren ro[Em]ad
There's [F]no one here while the [C]city sleeps
And [G]all the shops are closed
[C]Can't help but thi[G]nk
of the [Am]times I've had with [Em]you
[F]Pictures and some [C]memories
will [G]have to help me through, oh yeah

[Chorus 2]
[C]Dear God[G] the onl[Am]y thing I ask[G] of you is
To [F]hold her when I'm [C]not around
When I'm [G]much too far away
[C]We all nee[G]d
that [Am]person who can [G]be true to you
But I [F]left her when [C]I found her
And [G]now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm [F]lonely and I'm [G]tired
I'm [E]missing you a[Am]gain [G]oh [F]no
Once [C]again

[Bridge 1]
[Am]Some searc[E]h,
[F]never finding a way[C][G]
[Am]Before long,[E]
[F]they waste awa[C]y[G]
[Am]I found you,[E]
[F]something told me to sta[C]y[G]
[Am]I gave in,[E]
[F]to selfish way[C]s[G]
[Dm]And how I miss someone to hold[G]

[Verse 3]
When hope begins to fade
[C]A lonely roa[G]d,
crossed [Am]another cold state [Em]line
[F]Miles away from [C]those I love
[G]purpose undefined

[Chorus 3]
[C]Dear God[G] the onl[Am]y thing I ask[G] of you is
To [F]hold her when I'm [C]not around
When I'm [G]much too far away
[C]We all nee[G]d
that [Am]person who can [G]be true to you
But I [F]left her when [C]I found her
And [G]now I wish I'd stayed
'Cause I'm [F]lonely and I'm [G]tired
I'm [E]missing you a[Am]gain [G]oh [F]no
