[Verse 1]
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
Well the sun rises behind you when you walk a westbound road
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
And the light sometimes reminds you of someone you used to know
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
She had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you ever knew
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
But there's something about a highway changes sunshine into dew
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
Well the darkness is leaving as the sun comes to the sky
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
And the dew clings to the barley as the tears come to your eyes
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
As the night like all your friendships must come to meet their ends
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
You think about the good times drinking coffee with your friends
[Bridge]
Amaj7 A7 Bm7 Dm7b5
You see the shadows of your past, it was too beautiful to last
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm7 E7
And the highway keeps on calling you to follow
Amaj7 A7 Bm7 Dm7b5
And the echoes in your mind are fading slowly into time
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm7 E7
But you can't look back and still face your tomorrow
[Verse 3]
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
When a city cannot hold you there is always somewhere else
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
But if you think you'll stop your moving, you are lying to yourself
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
And you look through picture windows and see families in their homes
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm7 C#m7 Dmaj7 C#m7
But as long as there's a highway... you will walk alone
Bm7 E7 Amaj7
You will walk alone
|F#m7 |Bm9 |E7
[Outro]
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
All alone and by yourself down the dirty lonesome road the sun is coming up behind you
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7
And everything you see by the highway always has a sad, sad way to remind you...
