#VERSE 1

Bb        Eb            F (flair to Gm)
I'm never going back to Jackson

Gm         Eb             F (flair to Bb)
I couldn't bear to show my face

Bb        Eb               F (flair to Gm)
I nearly killed you with my drinking

Gm          Eb                 F (flair to Bb)
Wouldn't be caught dead in that place


#CHORUS

Bb         G     F
  Lonely highway,  only friend

Eb           Bb             F     C     C
  You've got me to keep you warm again

Bb         G     F
  Lonely highway,  don't you cry-ie-ey

Eb       Bb             F      C (wander with the C for 2 measures)
  Let me hold you in my arms tonight


#VERSE 2

Bb       Eb             F (flair to Gm)
And as I hurtle down the highway

Gm       Eb               F (flair to Bb)
Past the factories and the graves

Bb         Eb              F (flair to Gm)
I think of all the years I wasted

Gm         Eb             F (flair to Bb)
I think of all the years I've saved


#REPEAT CHORUS
