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