Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Down the [G]highway of sorrow
I'm [C]travelin' [G]alone
I've lost all my true friends
And I lost a happy [D]home
I'm [G]headed for destruction
I'm [C]on the wrong [G]track
Down the highway of sorrow
There's [D]no turning back
[G]

[Verse 2]
Once I had a darling wife
She was [C]kind, true, and [G]sweet
Our home, it was happy
And life was so com[D]plete
But [G]I fell for another
Who [C]led my heart [G]astray
Now I must live in sorrow
'til [D]my dying [G]day

[Verse 3]
Down the [G]highway of sorrow
I'm [C]travelin' [G]alone
I've lost all my true friends
And I lost a [D]happy home
I'm [G]headed for destruction
I'm [C]on the wrong [G]track
Down the highway of sorrow
There's [D]no turning [G]back

[Interlude 1]
[C][G]
[D][G][C][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 4]
I [G]went back to my darlin'
And [C]got down on my [G]knees
The then I begged her through my tears
To give my poor heart [D]ease
But [G]she was hurt so deeply
That she [C]could not for[G]give
My life will be a sorrow
For as [D]long as [G]I live

[Verse 5]
Down the [G]highway of sorrow
I'm [C]travelin' [G]alone
I've lost all my true friends
And I lost a happy [D]home
I'm [G]headed for destruction
I'm [C]on the wrong [G]track
Down the highway of sorrow
There's [D]no turning [G]back
