| G     | C     | G     | G     |
| G     | D     | G     | G     |


[Chorus]
     G
It's mighty dark for me to travel
       C                 G
For my sweetheart she is gone
    G
The road is rough and filled with gravel

But I must journey all alone


[Interlude]
| G     | C     | G     | G     |
| G     | D     | G     | G     |


[Verse 1]
         G
To me she was a little angel
                                C
Sent down to me from God above
              G
It was on the day that I first met her

That I told her of her love


[Chorus]
             G
It's mighty dark for me to travel
       C                 G
For my sweetheart she is gone
            G
The road is rough and filled with gravel

But I must journey all alone


[Interlude]
| G     | C     | G     | G     |
| G     | D     | G     | G     |


[Verse 2]
       G
Many a night we'd stroll together
        G
Talkin' of our love so fair
            G
My love for her will never vanish

For I know I'll meet her there


[Chorus]
            G
It's mighty dark for me to travel
       C                 G
For my sweetheart she is gone
            G
The road is rough and filled with gravel

But I must journey all alone


[Interlude]
| G     | C     | G     | G     |
| G     | D     | G     | G     |


[Verse 3]
          G
Travelin' down this lonesome highway
         G
Thinkin' of my love that's gone
        G
Knowin' soon we'll be together

She's the only love I've known


[Chorus]
            G
It's mighty dark for me to travel
       C                 G
For my sweetheart she is gone
            G
The road is rough and filled with gravel

But I must journey all alone


[Interlude]
| G     | C     | G     | G     |
| G     | D     | G     | G     |


[Chorus]
            G
It's mighty dark for me to travel
       C                 G
For my sweetheart she is gone
            G
The road is rough and filled with gravel
