[Intro]
G Am G
[Verse 1]
G Am C I gave up trying to save my soul G Think I’ll give it a go when the sun goes cold D7 Seems that heaven ain’t for the broke C When I pray I start to choke G Or maybe it’s from the smoke
[Chorus 1]
F C Single file, long bright drives G My only company a seatbelt chime D7 Got my old dog but no old friends C Spinning wheels, hitting dead ends G Gettin’ by on highway time
[Verse 2]
G Am C Stopped for gas at an old Esso G There’s a man outside with the radio on D7 He said, “Can you spare a dime?” C I said no sir, he pulls a knife G Something just ain’t quite right
[Chorus 3]
F C But when you gamble with borrowed fate G Shit piles up on your Sunday plate D7 You’d rather drift than walk the line C Promise I’ll be alright G Gettin’ by on highway time
[Solo]
Am C G D7 C Em
[Bridge]
Am C Oh how these nights drag on G Missing you is part of gettin me gone D7 C My life seems out of tune G And my mind is still on you
[Chorus]
F C So if I wander on over that line G Hold your postcards I’m just fine D7 My home address is leaving dodge C Bridges burning, blinders on G Still gettin’ by on highway time
[Outro]
D7 C Ice in my grill, dust in my spine -shit G Just hit a moose on highway time
