(It's a) Long Lonely Highway ------------------------------------ [Intro] C7 [Verse]
       C7
It's a long lonely highway when you're travellin' all alone

           F                                               C7
And it's a mean old world when you got no-one to call your own

        E                                           Am       F
And you pass through towns too small to even have a name, oh yes

              C              Am
But you gotta keep on goin', on that road to nowhere

      C              Am
Gotta keep on goin', though there's no-one to care

          C        F             C7
Just keep mo-------vin' down the line
[Verse]
        C7
It's a long lonely highway without her by my side

           F                                          C7
And it's a trail full of teardrops that keep on being cried

   E                                      Am        F
My heart's so heavy it's a low down dirty shame, oh yes

          C              Am
You gotta keep on goin', on that road to nowhere

      C              Am
Gotta keep on goin', though there's no-one to care

          C        F             C
Just keep mo-------vin' down the line
[Middle 8]
        F
I got a rock for my pillow 'neath a weeping willow

        C
And the cool grass for my bed

   F
My drinking water's muddy so don't you tell me buddy

       D                      G
That I wouldn't be better off dead
[Verse]
       C7
It's a long lonely highway gettin' longer all the time

           F                                             C7
And if she don't come and get me well, I'm gonna lose my mind

          E                                       Am        F
So if you read about me tell her she's the one to blame, oh yes

          C              Am
You gotta keep on goin', on that road to nowhere

      C              Am
Gotta keep on goin', though there's no-one to care

          C        F             C
Just keep mo-------vin' down the line

F               C
Movin' down the line
