Intro C F C F
C F Don't know why they even bother putting this highway on the map C F Everybody that's ever been on it knows exactly where they're at G Hells on both ends of it F And no where's in between C F This highway's mean C F Seems like it's always hot down here, no matter when you come C F It's the kind of heat that holds you like a mama holds her son G F Tight when he tries to walk, even tighter if he runs G It's a mean old dusty highway F G But it's the only one that'll get you there Am F That'll get you there Am Mean old highway F C Am Stuck to the ground in Mississippi F C It's the one'll set me free F It's the same one that I see G F Being ripped up off the ground and wrapped around me G C Don't let it fool you this highway's mean C F I don't need a map to tell me where I am today C F This feeling that I have has always led the way G Down here, you're running from a broken heart F C Or to a heart that you have to break on this mean old highway
