Highway Blues

Start

Verse 1

I woke up in the morning, with thunder in my head

Last night's bottle empty, lying next to my bed

The rain against my window, tells me it's time to go

Another town is calling, another seed to sow

Pre-Chorus

Sometimes the road seems endless, when you're searching for the truth

Looking for redemption, for the sins of wasted youth

Chorus

Down this long highway, I've been traveling alone

With my guitar and memories, so far from home

The wind keeps howling, like an old familiar tune

And I keep moving forward, beneath the pale blue moon

Verse 2

Well I met a man in Memphis, with sorrow in his eyes

He said he lost his fortune, to women and to lies

I bought him a whiskey, we talked till the dawn

By morning light he vanished, like he'd never come along[Chorus]

Down this long highway, I've been traveling alone

With my guitar and memories, so far from home

The wind keeps howling, like an old familiar tune

And I keep moving forward, beneath the pale blue moon

Verse 2

Well I met a man in Memphis, with sorrow in his eyes

He said he lost his fortune, to women and to lies

I bought him a whiskey, we talked till the dawn

By morning light he vanished, like he'd never come along

Pre-Chorus

Sometimes the road seems endless, when you're searching for the truth

Looking for redemption, for the sins of wasted youth

Chorus

Down this long highway, I've been traveling alone

With my guitar and memories, so far from home

The wind keeps howling, like an old familiar tune

And I keep moving forward, beneath the pale blue moon[Bridge]

They say a rolling stone gathers no moss

But it still feels the weight of every loss

My fingers bleed on these six steel strings

Trying to make sense of what tomorrow brings

Verse 3

In a crossroads diner outside of New Orleans

I saw a woman dancing through the smoke and steam

Her eyes held wisdom from another age

Like she'd seen it all from offstage

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Down this long highway, I've been traveling alone

With my guitar and memories, so far from home

The wind keeps howling, like an old familiar tune

And I keep moving forward, beneath the pale blue moon
