[Verse 1]
G
My kind of walkin’ the line
C            D         G       C D
Was down the side of a highway
G
I thought I’d never get caught
C              D          G        C D
In the kind of love where I’d stay
Em              G
Then I ran into you
Em                 C     D
And my runnin’ was through


[Chorus] (optional half step up from verses - I stay in the same key)

         G
From the word go
C          D               G                       C D
I knew I’d found where the road ends and love begins
         G
From the word go
C          D         G   C D
I knew I’d never go again


[Verse 2]
G
So many places I’ve been
C              D                  G       C D
Lord knows the walkin’ shoes I’ve worn out
G
But I knew after being with you
C              D         G        C D
I’d never been nowhere before now
Em                  G
All it took was the touch
Em                C        D
Stop my heart and start love


[Chorus] (optional half step up from verses - I stay in the same key)

         G
From the word go
C          D               G                       C D
I knew I’d found where the road ends and love begins
         G
From the word go
C          D         G   C D
I knew I’d never go again


[Outro]
Em                         G
You stopped me right in my tracks
Em                  C  D
There was no going back
