[Verse 1]
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
Well the sun rises behind you when you walk a westbound road
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
And the light sometimes reminds you of someone you used to know
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
She had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you ever knew
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
But there's something about a highway changes sunshine into dew

[Verse 2]
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
Well the darkness is leaving as the sun comes to the sky
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
And the dew clings to the barley as the tears come to your eyes
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
As the night like all your friendships must come to meet their ends
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
You think about the good times drinking coffee with your friends
[Bridge]
Bmaj7 B7 C#m7 Dm7b5
You see the shadows of your past, it was too beautiful to last
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m7 F#7
And the highway keeps on calling you to follow
Bmaj7 B7 C#m7 Dm7b5
And the echoes in your mind are fading slowly into time
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m7 F#7
But you can't look back and still face your tomorrow
[Verse 3]
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
When a city cannot hold you there is always somewhere else
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
But if you think you'll stop your moving, you are lying to yourself
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
And you look through picture windows and see families in their homes
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m7 D#m7 Emaj7 D#m7
But as long as there's a highway... you will walk alone
C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7
You will walk alone
|G#m7 |C#m9 |F#7
[Outro]
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
All alone and by yourself down the dirty lonesome road the sun is coming up behind you
Bmaj7 G#m7 C#m9 F#7
And everything you see by the highway always has a sad, sad way to remind you...
