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