The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The road of love is rocky
It's lonely and it's blue
When the one that you dream of
Walks on ahead of you
Well I laughed the night she left me
Said she'd come back after a while
But for every inch I laughed I cried a mile
It's a mighty lonesome feeling
When you go to bed at night
And there's nothing but a pillow
And a memory on your right
Oh if man was born to suffer
Well I guess I'm right in the style
For every inch I've laughed I cried a mile
I laughed and said a new love
Would be easy to find
And I was right there's so easy
In all the wrong kind
As I travelled down life's highway
It hardly seems worthwhile
For every inch I've laughed I cried a mile
It's a mighty lonesome feeling
When you go to bed at night
And there's nothing but a pillow
And a memory on your right
Oh if man was born to suffer
Well I guess I'm right in the style
Cause every inch I've laughed I cried a mile
Yes if man was born to suffer
Well I guess I'm right in the style
Cause every inch I've laughed I cried a mile
