Key E Flat - Put Capo on 6th Fret VERSE 1 Am Would you trade me for all the pretty girls all the ones who came before? Who left you broken hearted with your back up against the wall. Would you cash in all your high times E7 for some lasting company? Am C D F Or a warm soft breast for you to lay your head on E7 Am for all of eternity. CHORUS E7 Am If you are holding out for something E7 Just reach and we'll rise above. Am C D F Give me sun, give me dirt give me water E7 Am give me sweet everlasting love. VERSE 2 Am Would you travel right across the world to meet a woman that you didn't know? If you thought that she might be the one to put your roots down with and grow. Would you take her hand and walk with her E7 through the narrow gate of life Am C D F Gather your load, prepare to travel the road E7 Am that's gonna lead you from trouble and strife CHORUS & REPEAT VERSE 1
