(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
