Verse 1

N.C.
On the blue side of evenin'
N.C.
When the darkness takes control
N.C.
You start lookin' for a reason
N.C.
To take your lonesome on down the road

Instrumental

G Em C G (first two lines of verse 2)

Verse 2

'Cause the night is filled with strangers
All you need is one you know
And if she ain't the one you're after
Keep on lookin' on down the road

Chorus

Though the miles lay long behind you
You have still got miles to go
How's love ever gonna find you
If it ain't here, it's down the road

Instrumental

G Em C G x 2 (same pattern as verse 2)

Chorus

Though the miles lay long behind you
You have still got miles to go
How's love ever gonna find you
If it ain't here, it's down the road
Keep on lookin' on down the road
N.C.
On the blue side of evenin'
When the darkness takes control
