[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
Well the sun rises behind you when you walk a westbound road
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
And the light sometimes reminds you of someone you used to know
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
She had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you ever knew
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
But there's something about a highway changes sunshine into dew
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
Well the darkness is leaving as the sun comes to the sky
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
And the dew clings to the barley as the tears come to your eyes
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
As the night like all your friendships must come to meet their ends
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
You think about the good times drinking coffee with your friends
[Bridge]
Fmaj7 F7 Gm7 Dm7b5
You see the shadows of your past, it was too beautiful to last
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm7 C7
And the highway keeps on calling you to follow
Fmaj7 F7 Gm7 Dm7b5
And the echoes in your mind are fading slowly into time
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm7 C7
But you can't look back and still face your tomorrow
[Verse 3]
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
When a city cannot hold you there is always somewhere else
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
But if you think you'll stop your moving, you are lying to yourself
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
And you look through picture windows and see families in their homes
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm7 Am7 A#maj7 Am7
But as long as there's a highway... you will walk alone
Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
You will walk alone
|Dm7 |Gm9 |C7
[Outro]
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
All alone and by yourself down the dirty lonesome road the sun is coming up behind you
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm9 C7
And everything you see by the highway always has a sad, sad way to remind you...
|Fmaj7 |Dm7 |Gm9 |G7
