This is just a rough sketch, but it should allow you to approximate
both versions of this song.
Intro: G (4x)
Verse:
GAm C(2x)
Did I tell you, about the dark lonely road
GAm C D
I was counting my steps as I made my way home
GAmC(2x)
Days are nothing but time on your hands, weighing on me
DAm C
came to my end
D Am C
undecided
DAm CD(2x)
Whether to count what I felt against what I could say..
GD C D
I try not to wander, or to tell you that
GDC DGD
I'm not willing to wait when deep in my Heart I'm willing
C DG D C
DG(4x)
Hearts still willing, my brain's impatient my hearts still willing to
wait
Verse 2: Our love is, so important to me, starts wherever you land
walks right over to me. Days are nothing but time inbetween, obviously.
so unwary, or uncaring, I try not to be part of that and that's easy to
say but but I try not to wander...
(Guitar solo)
For the final verse, skip right to the pre-chorus part
Verse 3: There's a moment, to discover, no one can take all the blame
and it's finally clear I try not to wander...
That should get you started.
