Key: B
Introduction:
G C G
I once had a darling, was kind, true and sweet.
G D
Life was so bright and gay, everything to please.
G C G
I fell for another, who led my life astray.
G D G
And now I live in sorrow, 'till my dying day
G C G
Down a Highway of Sorrow, I'm traveling along.
G D
I've lost all my true friends, I've lost a happy home.
G C G
I'm headed for destruction, I'm on the wrong track.
G D G
Down a Highway of Sorrow, there's no turning back.
G C G
I went back to my darling, and I got down on my knees.
G D
I begged here with tears and eyes, to give my poor heart ease.
G C G
But she was hurt so deeply, she could not forgive.
G D G
Now I live in sorrow, as long as I live
