Elvis Presley, Trying To Get To You (1955)
^{Key: :[F] (w: Rose Marie McCoy, Charles Singleton)}

VERSE 1:
[N.C.] I've been travelin' over [F] mountains
Even through the valley's [F] too [F open]
I've been travelin' night and [Bb] day
I've been runnin' all the [C7] way
Baby, tryin' to get to [F] you [F open]

VERSE 2:
Ever since I read your [F] letter
Where you said you loved me [F] true [F open]
I've been travelin' night and [Bb] day
I've been runnin' all the [C7] way
Baby, tryin' to get to [F] you [F open]

BRIDGE 1:
[F7] When I read your lovin [Bb] letter
Then my heart began to [F] sing
There were many miles be-[Bb]-tween us
But they didn't mean a [C7 open] thing

VERSE 3:
I just had to reach you [F] baby
In spite of all you put me [F] through [F open]
I've been travelin' night and [Bb] day
I've been runnin' all the [C7] way
Baby, tryin' to get to [F] you

INSTRUMENTAL: [over BRIDGE]

VERSE 4:
If I had to do it [F] over
That's exactly what I'd [F] do [F open]
And I'd travel night and [Bb] day
And I'd still run all the [C7] way
Baby tryin to get to [F] you

BRIDGE 2:
[F7] Well there's nothin that could hold [Bb] me here
Or that could keep me away from [F] you
When your lovin letter [Bb] told me
That you really loved me [C7 open] true

VERSE 5:
Lord above he knows I love [F] you
It was he who brought me [F] through [F open]
When my way was dark as [Bb] night
It would shine as bright as [C7] light
When I was tryin to get to [F] you [Bb] [F open]
