G  D               G        Em
Just one mistake that a man can make
        C                  G
when he has the world tied down
                 D           G
is to let it ride on an easy lie
              Am
and close his eyes
              D
and close his eyes


[Chorus]
                C               G
Don't let me go down that road again
                 C               G    
I know where it leads and how it ends
      C                      G
Right now I need the kind of friend
                    D                 G
Who won't let me go  down that road again


[Verse 2]
              D              G         Em
I set her free and called it love
      C                G
and I watched her slip away
            D              G
I let her go in a place so dark
                Am
after all these days
                D
after all these days


[Chorus]
                C               G
Don't let me go down that road again
                 C               G    
I know where it leads and how it ends
      C                      G
Right now I need the kind of friend
                    D                 G
Who won't let me go  down that road again

[Verse 3]
              D                    G      Em
There is a man who looks just like me
            C             G
who doesn't feel a single thing
                       D
if you see him around
                   G
won't you stop and say
             Am
it's not too late
             D
it's not too late


[Chorus]
                C               G
Don't let me go down that road again
                 C               G    
I know where it leads and how it ends
      C                      G
Right now I need the kind of friend
                    D                 G
Who won't let me go  down that road again

                C               G
Don't let me go down that road again
                 C               G    
I know where it leads and how it ends
      C                      G
Right now I need the kind of friend
                    D                 G
Who won't let me go  down that road again
