[Verse 1]
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
Well the sun rises behind you when you walk a westbound road
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
And the light sometimes reminds you of someone you used to know
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
She had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you ever knew
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
But there's something about a highway changes sunshine into dew
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
Well the darkness is leaving as the sun comes to the sky
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
And the dew clings to the barley as the tears come to your eyes
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
As the night like all your friendships must come to meet their ends
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
You think about the good times drinking coffee with your friends
[Bridge]
Dmaj7 D7 Em7 Dm7b5
You see the shadows of your past, it was too beautiful to last
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em7 A7
And the highway keeps on calling you to follow
Dmaj7 D7 Em7 Dm7b5
And the echoes in your mind are fading slowly into time
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em7 A7
But you can't look back and still face your tomorrow
[Verse 3]
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
When a city cannot hold you there is always somewhere else
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
But if you think you'll stop your moving, you are lying to yourself
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
And you look through picture windows and see families in their homes
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em7 F#m7 Gmaj7 F#m7
But as long as there's a highway... you will walk alone
Em7 A7 Dmaj7
You will walk alone
|Bm7 |Em9 |A7
[Outro]
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
All alone and by yourself down the dirty lonesome road the sun is coming up behind you
Dmaj7 Bm7 Em9 A7
And everything you see by the highway always has a sad, sad way to remind you...
