Highway Prayer

(início)

G                 C                G
For those who the road is all that matters
C                                   G
For them who have lived on borrowed time

G                C                G
For those whose seeds in life are scattered
C                                  D
For them that are too far down the line
For those who have lived on next to nothing
Playing in a bar in Jacksonville
With nothing but the songs that they are singing

With nothing but the spaces left to fill
Chorus:
D                G
Here’s a highway prayer
G                C
Here’s a highway song
C              C
Don’t stay too late

C             D
Don’t cry too long
D             G          C
You’re coming home, home again
C              C    D         G
Gonna tell ‘em all where you been
I used to think the road was all that mattered
I used to like to live on borrowed time
I used to like to live on next to nothing

But I’m still out here living line to line
Living in some old torch singer’s memory
Out here on the road to Tennessee
A place where all our songs and dreams go sailing

And I’ll say one for you, you sing one for me
Chorus:
D                G
Here’s a highway prayer
G                C
Here’s a highway song
C              C
Don’t stay too late

C             D
Don’t cry too long
D             G          C
You’re coming home, home again
C              C    D         G
Gonna tell ‘em all where you been
