G It's mighty dark for me to travel C G For my sweetheart she has gone The road is rough and filled with gravel D7 G But I must journey on alone [Verse 1] G To me she was a little angel Sent down to me from God above C G And on the day that I first met her D7 G Then I told her of my love [Chorus] G It's mighty dark for me to travel C G For my sweetheart she has gone The road is rough and filled with gravel D7 G But I must journey on alone [Verse 2] G Many a night we strolled together Talking of our love so fair C G My love for her will never vanish D7 G For I know I'll meet her there [Chorus] G It's mighty dark for me to travel C G For my sweetheart she has gone The road is rough and filled with gravel D7 G But I must journey on alone [Verse 3] G Traveling down this lonesome highway Thinking of my love that’s gone C G Knowing soon we'll be together D7 G She's the only love I've known [Chorus] G It's mighty dark for me to travel C G For my sweetheart she has gone The road is rough and filled with gravel D7 G But I must journey on alone
