[Verse]
Am Am/G Am
Man walkin‘ long the railroad tracks
C G
Goin‘ some place there’s no going back
Highway patrol choppers comin‘ up over the ridge
Am Am/G Am
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
Am/G Am
Shelter line stretchin‘ round the corner
C G
Welcome to the new world order
Families sleepin‘ in their cars in the Southwest
Am Am/G Am
No home no job no peace no rest
[Chorus]
F
The highway is alive tonight
C C/B Am
But nobody’s kiddin‘ nobody about where it goes
G
I’m sittin‘ down here in the campfire light
Am Am/G Am
Searchin‘ for the ghost of Tom Joad
[Verse]
Am Am/G Am
He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
C G
Preacher lights up a butt and takes a drag
Waitin‘ for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
Am Am/G Am
In a cardboard box neath the underpass
Am/G Am
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
C G
You got hole in your belly and a gun in your hand
Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
Am Am/G Am
Bathin‘ in the city aquaeduct
[Chorus]
F
The highway is alive tonight
C C/B Am
Where it’s headed everybody knows
G
I’m sittin‘ down here in the campfire light
Am Am/G Am
Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joad
[Harmonica Break]
F C C/B Am G Am
[Verse]
Am Am/G Am
Now Tom said: "Mom, wherever there’s cop beatin‘ a guy
C G
Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
Where there’s a fight gainst blood and hatred in the air
Am Am/G Am
Look for me Mom I’ll be there
Am/G Am
Wherever there’s somebody fightin‘ for a place to stand
C G
Or decent job or helping hand
Wherever somebody’s strugglin‘ to be free
Am Am/G Am
Look in their eyes Mom you’ll see me"
[Chorus]
F
Well the highway is alive tonight
C C/B Am
But nobody’s kiddin‘ nobody about where it goes
G
I’m sittin‘ down here in the campfire light
Am Am/G Am
With the ghost of old Tom Joad
[Outro]
