[Verse 1]
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
Well the sun rises behind you when you walk a westbound road
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
And the light sometimes reminds you of someone you used to know
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
She had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you ever knew
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
But there's something about a highway changes sunshine into dew
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
Well the darkness is leaving as the sun comes to the sky
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
And the dew clings to the barley as the tears come to your eyes
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
As the night like all your friendships must come to meet their ends
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
You think about the good times drinking coffee with your friends
[Bridge]
C#maj7 C#7 D#m7 Dm7b5
You see the shadows of your past, it was too beautiful to last
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m7 G#7
And the highway keeps on calling you to follow
C#maj7 C#7 D#m7 Dm7b5
And the echoes in your mind are fading slowly into time
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m7 G#7
But you can't look back and still face your tomorrow
[Verse 3]
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
When a city cannot hold you there is always somewhere else
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
But if you think you'll stop your moving, you are lying to yourself
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
And you look through picture windows and see families in their homes
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m7 Fm7 F#maj7 Fm7
But as long as there's a highway... you will walk alone
D#m7 G#7 C#maj7
You will walk alone
|A#m7 |D#m9 |G#7
[Outro]
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
All alone and by yourself down the dirty lonesome road the sun is coming up behind you
C#maj7 A#m7 D#m9 G#7
And everything you see by the highway always has a sad, sad way to remind you...
