Crossroads chords   

Am 
I'm standing at the crossroads 
F                       Am 
There are many roads to take 
Am 
But I stand here so silently 
    F                Am 
For fear of a mistake 
F                         Am 
  One path leads to paradise 
F                         Am 
  One path leads to pain 
F                         Am 
  One path leads to freedom 
G 	    F                 Am 
(I swear) they all look the same 

Am 
I've traveled many roads 
    F                    Am 
And not all of them were good 
Am 
The foolish ones taught more to me 
         F              Am 
Than the wise ones ever could 
F                        Am 
  One path leads to sacrifice 
F                        Am 
  One path leads to shame 
F                        Am 
  One path leads to freedom 
G         F                 Am 
(I swear) they all look the same 

          F                 Am 
There are roads I never traveled 
           F                Am 
There were turns I did not take 
           F                     Am 
There were mysteries that I left unraveled 
    G               F          Am 
But leaving you was my only mistake 

Am 
So I'm standing at the crossroads 
F                  Am 
Imprisoned by this doubt 
Am 
As if by doing nothing 
F                   Am 
I might find my way out 
F                     Am 
  One path leads to paradise 
F                     Am 
  One path leads to pain 
F                     Am 
  One path leads to freedom 
G   F                 Am 
But they all look the same 

           F             Am 
There were roads I never traveled 
           F               Am 
There were turns I did not take 
           F                       Am 
There were mysteries that I left unraveled 
    G               F          Am 
But leaving you was my only mistake 

           F             Am 
There were roads I never traveled 
           F               Am 
There were turns I did not take 
           F                       Am 
There were mysteries that I left unraveled 
    G               F          Am 
But leaving you was my only mistake 
    G               F          Am 
But leaving you was my only mistake
