C G D
C G
In a dusty little town, where dreams were born,
D Em
I saw her walking by, my heart was torn.
C G
She had a smile that could light up the night,
D
But fate had a different plan, try as I might.
Em C G
She's the girl I'll never hold, but she's in my soul,
Em C D
A love that burns so deep, it takes its toll.
Em C G
I'll sing this song, and let the wind carry it far,
Em C D
For the girl I'll never hold, my shining star.
C G
She had hair like a sunset, a heart full of grace,
D Em
Her laughter echoed through that old country place.
C G
But distance stood between us, like a mountain high,
D
I watched her fade away, with tears in my eyes.
Em C G
She's the girl I'll never hold, but she's in my soul,
Em C D
A love that burns so deep, it takes its toll.
Em C G
I'll sing this song, and let the wind carry it far,
Em C D
For the girl I'll never hold, my shining star.
C D
Now I roam these empty fields, under the moonlit sky,
C D
I wonder if she hears my voice, as the days go by.
C D
I hope she's found her happiness, wherever she may be,
C D
But I can't help but wonder, if she ever thinks of me.
Em C G
She's the girl I'll never hold, but she's in my soul,
Em C D
A love that burns so deep, it takes its toll.
Em C G
I'll sing this song, and let the wind carry it far,
Em C D
For the girl I'll never hold, my shining star.
Em C G
She's the girl I'll never hold, but she's in my soul,
Em C D
A love that burns so deep, it takes its toll.
Em C G
I'll sing this song, and let the wind carry it far,
Em C D
For the girl I'll never hold, my shining star.
Outro
C G
So here's my heartache, poured into these words,
D Em
A tribute to a love that could never be heard.
C G
But I'll keep on singing, as the years unfold,
D
For the girl I'll never hold, forever untold.
