Every Road (Amy Grant / Wayne Kirkpatrick)
transcribed by Roland Kalus
Lyrics:
1st Verse:
There you go making mountains
out of such a little hill
Here I go mixing mortar
For another wall to build
There’s a struggle in this life we lead
It’s partly you
It’s partly me
Chorus:
Every road thats’travelled
teaches something new
And every road that narrows
pushes us to choos
And I’d be lying if I said
I had not tried to leave a time or two
But every road that leads me
leads me back to you
Here we stand in the middle
of what we’ve come to know
It’s a dance, it’s a balance
Holding on and letting go
There is nothing that we can’t resolve
When love is at stake
When love is involved
Chorus & Fade

Repeat first four bars of chorus and fade…
Since there are 4 guitars and maybe 2 basses on the recording this
represents an arrangment for one guitar. The bass walks
sometime to an Ab while the guitar stays on a dmin7/b5.
