---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Arranged in 3/4 timing (denoted by the 1 & 2 & 3 & above the tablature). The timing took the longest to figure out. The whole tab was figured out by ear so if it's not 100% that's why but I think it sounds pretty close. Hope it helps! Open to suggestions and PLEASE RATE!!!

Life is one big road With a lot of signs and turns & twists and curves Even though the road is rocky My main thing's to rock and keep on rockin' From city to city Backyard to yard And we be seein' the sights, standin' under the lights And the spot is hot, it's cold and lonely at night And I'm feelin' and I'm dreamin' and I'm holding you tight But hold on, every single road I roll on Comes to an end and I'm back home again So baby please don't cry, there's no valley low and there's no mountain high And our love don't die with the passage of time It just grows more, And just keep strong And even though i'm gone, I am never too far You're the light thru the dark, shining right thru my heart So my journey must start... (Chorus) - 04:26 Hey baby don’t you worry Even though the road is rocky I’ll be coming home to you again Cuz if you thought that I was lost I had to bare my cross Now I’m free from all these Chains . . . . repeat till end Playing Notes / Musical Notation;- * - mute the strings with your fretting hand to accentuate the staccato feel of the strings. ~ - Vibrato e-----------------------------------------------|| b---------------------TAB-----------------------|| g------------------DEDICATED -------------------|| d-----------------TO EADAOIN--------------------|| a--------------------XXXX-----------------------|| e-----------------------------------------------|| comments but constructive criticism only please.
