Intro: C
Am Dm G
Summer is over and her temples are grey
Dm Am F G
And I guess you'll be looking 'round for somebody new
C Am Dm G
Or maybe you found him and you're just not saying
Dm Am F G
'Cause he makes you feel the way I used to do
C G Dm
Oh babe, if there's a better way to love you
Am F
Well, show it to me
C F G
'Cause I could not live and let you get away
Dm F G
Knowing there was a better way-y
C Am Dm G
Well, out on that highway, the mean wind is screaming
Dm Am F G
And it cuts right through you and the rain bites hard
C Am Dm G
But I'd walk beside you, to share in your dreaming
Dm Am F G
And while you were sleeping, I'd be standing guard
C G Dm
Now babe, if there's a better way to love you
Am F
Well, show it to me
C F G
'Cause I could not live and let you get away
Dm F G
Knowing there was a better way-y
C Am Dm G
Well, hard roads bust open with bitter words spoken
Dm Am F G
And hearts can be broken, and dreams undone
C Am Dm G
But hearts can be mended, and hard words forgotten
Dm Am F G
And roads return often where they started from
C G Dm
So babe, if there's a better way to love you
Am F
Well, show it to me
C F G
'Cause I could not live and let you get away
Dm F G
Knowing there was a better way-y
C Am Dm G
Death came to my window in the form of a maiden
Dm Am F G
But she didn't say nothing, she just stood and stared
C Am Dm G
And 'round about midnight she lay down beside me
Dm Am F G
But when I awoke, there was nobody there
C G Dm
Oh babe, if there's a better way to love you
Am F
Well, show it to me
C F G
'Cause I could not live and let you get away
Dm F G
Knowing there was a better way-y
