Intro C G D Em C G DC 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.Verse 1:
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.Verse 2:
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.Bridge:
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.
