D             A            F#              Bm  A  
Pickin up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream,

  G              D               Asus4 A
I wonder how the old folks are tonight?

    D                 A                 F#           Bm 
Her name was Ann, and I'll be damned if I recall her face;

G               A               D
She left me not knowing what to do.

D        C       G        A            D 
Carefree highway,  let me slip away on you

         C       G             A 
Carefree highway,  you've seen better days

    Bm            A              G         D     E
The morning after blues, from my head down to my shoes

D         C       G        A                       D  
 Carefree highway,  let me slip away, slip away on you
C G A D C G Asus4 A
D                A            F#           Bm A
Turning back the pages to the times I love best

  G                D           Asus4 A
I wonder if she'll ever do the same?

        D                 A              F#         Bm
Now the thing that I call living is just being satisfied,

     G             A              D
With knowing I got no one left to blame

D        C       G        A            D 
Carefree highway,  let me slip away on you

         C       G             A 
Carefree highway,  you've seen better days

    Bm            A              G         D     E
The morning after blues, from my head down to my shoes

D         C       G        A                       D

Searching thru the fragments of my dream shattered sleep;

  G             D                     Asus4 A
I wonder if the years have closed her mind?

       D                A              F#            Bm
Well I guess it must be wander lust or trying to get free,

G                 A                        D
From the good old faithful feeling we once knew

D        C       G        A            D 
Carefree highway,  let me slip away on you

         C       G             A 
Carefree highway,  you've seen better days

Let me slip away on you

Carefree highway   I got to see you my old flame

         C       G             A 
Carefree highway,  you've seen better days

    Bm            A              G         D     E
The morning after blues, from my head down to my shoes

D         C       G        A                       D
