Lyrics and Chords - 00:31
Bm
I’ve been gone awhile away from you
F#
And I hope you overstand
Bm
That I’ve got to do what I must do
F#
To be a better man
Bm
Cuz if I was to just to act a fool
F#
Do nothing with myself
Bm
Then all my blessings would be cursed
F#
My world would crumble in
Bm
It’s a joy when I sit down and
F#
Think of the good times that we have
Bm
And what we do to make it through
F#
When the good turns to bad
Bm
Well I hope you’ll find it in your heart
F#
And know these words are true
Bm
And please don’t fuss
F#
Because I must go do what I must do
(Chorus) - 01:24
Bm
Hey baby don’t you worry
F#
Even though the road is rocky
Bm
I’ll be coming home to you again
F#
Cuz if you thought that I was lost
Bm
I had to bare my cross
F#
Now I’m free from all these Chains
Verse 2 - 01:49
Bm
A time, a space, a different place
F#
How perfect we might be
Bm
I would be the wind that blows
F#
You’d be that Willow tree
Bm F#
And I could never bare the thought of you not by my side
Bm
So I would be the warmth of day
F#
You’d be the cool of night
Bm F#
And everyday I pray to Jah that one day you will see
Bm F#
And overstand the fact I must fulfill my destiny
Bm F#
I hope you’ll find it in your heart and know these words are true
Bm
And please don’t cry
F#
You know that I must do what I must do
(Chorus) - 02:42
Bm
Hey baby don’t you worry
F#
Even though the road is rocky
Bm
I’ll be coming home to you again
F#
Cuz if you thought that I was lost
Bm
I had to bare my cross
F#
Now I’m free from all these Chains
(Bridge)
Bm
Well and it’s not easy
F#
Jah knows how I try, I try
Bm
So don’t you get irie
F#
Jah knows how I try, I try
Verse 3 - 3:32
Bm
God knows...
F#
Life is one big road
Bm
With a lot of signs and turns & twists and curves
F#
Even though the road is rocky
Bm
My main thing's to rock and keep on rockin'
F#
From city to city
Bm
Backyard to yard
F#
And we be seein' the sights, standin' under the lights
Bm
And the spot is hot, it's cold and lonely at night
F#
And I'm feelin' and I'm dreamin' and I'm holding you tight
Bm
But hold on, every single road I roll on
F#
Comes to an end and I'm back home again
Bm F#
So baby please don't cry, there's no valley low and there's no mountain high
Bm
And our love don't die with the passage of time
F#
It just grows more,
And just keep strong
Bm
And even though i'm gone, I am never too far
F#
You're the light thru the dark, shining right thru my heart
Bm
So my journey must start...
(Chorus) - 04:26
Bm
Hey baby don’t you worry
F#
Even though the road is rocky
Bm
I’ll be coming home to you again
F#
Cuz if you thought that I was lost
Bm
I had to bare my cross
F#
Now I’m free from all these Chains
