Take Me By Surprise Chords
This song is pretty hard to find, but it is a magnificent piece of work. So simplistic,
so deep and moving. -MRG
Not sure if most of the words are correct. Kind of hard to decipher since it was a live performance.

All the roads I’ve traveled

All the mountains I put behind

And still you’re smile can take me by surprise.
