[Verse 1]
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
Well the sun rises behind you when you walk a westbound road
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
And the light sometimes reminds you of someone you used to know
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
She had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you ever knew
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
But there's something about a highway changes sunshine into dew
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
Well the darkness is leaving as the sun comes to the sky
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
And the dew clings to the barley as the tears come to your eyes
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
As the night like all your friendships must come to meet their ends
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
You think about the good times drinking coffee with your friends
[Bridge]
Gmaj7 G7 Am7 Dm7b5
You see the shadows of your past, it was too beautiful to last
Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 D7
And the highway keeps on calling you to follow
Gmaj7 G7 Am7 Dm7b5
And the echoes in your mind are fading slowly into time
Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 D7
But you can't look back and still face your tomorrow
[Verse 3]
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
When a city cannot hold you there is always somewhere else
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
But if you think you'll stop your moving, you are lying to yourself
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
And you look through picture windows and see families in their homes
Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 Bm7 Cmaj7 Bm7
But as long as there's a highway... you will walk alone
Am7 D7 Gmaj7
You will walk alone
|Em7 |Am9 |D7
[Outro]
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
All alone and by yourself down the dirty lonesome road the sun is coming up behind you
Gmaj7 Em7 Am9 D7
And everything you see by the highway always has a sad, sad way to remind you...
