As you journey down the road my friend
A B E
You'll see sights you don't want to see
C#m E
I saw one about a year ago
A E
When my wife walked out on me
E
I didn't care so much about the junk she took
A B E
It wasn't worth a second glance
C#m E
Right now I'd give anything
A E
If I could see my little girl dance
E
See I've always been a traveling man
A B E
I still do get around
C#m E
And it's true I knew a girl or two
A E
When I was out of town
E
But they all add up to nothing
A B E
In this world of cheap romance
C#m E
And I'd trade them all for one short hour
A E
Watching Amy dance
B E
She'd run round and round in circles and
B E
Clap her little hands
A C#m E
It's a memory that keeps haunting me
E A E
Wish I could see my Amy dance
A E
Wish I could my little girl dance
E C#m E C#m A B
E
My Mom and Dad are gone rest their souls
A B E
My brother is far away
C#m E
And the way I thought it would all turn out
A E
And where I am today
E
Lord I know I don't deserve no favors
A B E
Please grant me one more chance
C#m E A E
Just to spend an hour or two watching Amy dance
B E
She'd run round and round in circles and
B E
Clap her little hands
A C#m E
It's a memory that keeps haunting me
E A E
Wish I could see my Amy dance
A E
Wish I could my little girl dance
E C#m E C#m A B
E
It all adds up to nothing
A B E
In this world of cheap romance
C#m E
And I'd trade them all for one short hour
A E
Watching Amy dance
