Lyrics
Two roads diverged in a wood
Sorry I could not travel both
Be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could




Took the other just as fair
It was grassy and wanted wear
Had worn them about the same
And having perhaps the better claim

(Chorus)

And both that morning equally lay
I kept the first for another day
In leaves no step had trodden black
I doubted if I should (ever) come back




I'll be telling this with a sigh
Two roads diverged in a wood and I
Took the one less traveled by
And guess that has made all the differences

Instrumental break

Repeat chorus twice

Knowing how way leads on to way

Thanks!
Thank you Feter! We actually did 2 versions of this song. This is in the original key but I had to modify the original melody of the chorus because it was out of my vocal range. We did a second version in a lower key where I was able to sing the original melody all the way through.

Love the vocals
completely... strong clear and emotive!! Not fond of the strings... The guitar work is strong enough to stand alone. Excellent song Holley!

Very nice pure vocal tone
I love simple clean vocals. Too many singers use runs and vocal theatrics nowadays. Nice Job. If you are interested in doing some more vocal work, i have a couple songs I may be able to use you on.
