This is just a rough sketch, but it should allow you to approximate

both versions of this song.

 

G Am C(2x)

Did I tell you, about the dark lonely road

I was counting my steps as I made my way home

G Am C(2x)

Days are nothing but time on your hands, weighing on me

came to my end

undecided

D Am C D(2x)

Whether to count what I felt against what I could say..

I try not to wander, or to tell you that

I'm not willing to wait when deep in my Heart I'm willing

D G(4x)

Hearts still willing, my brain's impatient my hearts still willing to

wait

Verse 2: Our love is, so important to me, starts wherever you land

walks right over to me. Days are nothing but time inbetween, obviously.

so unwary, or uncaring, I try not to be part of that and that's easy to

say but but I try not to wander...

(Guitar solo)

For the final verse, skip right to the pre-chorus part

Verse 3: There's a moment, to discover, no one can take all the blame

and it's finally clear I try not to wander...

That should get you started.
