Key: Chorus:
[Verse]
F#m
They made up their
minds
Bm
And they started
packing
C#7
F#m
They left before the
sun came up that
day
F#7
Bm
An exit to eternal
summer slacking
F#m
C#7
But where were they
going without
ever
F#m
Knowing the way?
F#m
They drank up the
wine
Bm
And they got to
talking
C#7
F#m
They now had more
important things to
say
F#7
Bm
When the car broke
down they started
walking
F#m
C#7
Where were they
going without
even
F#m
E
Knowing the way?
[Chorus]
E
A
Anyone can see the
road that they walk
on
E
Is paved with
gold
F#m
It's always
summer
C#7
They'll never get
cold
D
They'll never get
hungry
A
E
They'll never get
old and grey
A
E
You can see their
shadows wandering
off somewhere
F#m
They won't make it
home
C#7
But they really
don't care
D
They wanted the
highway
A
E C#7
They're happier
there today
[Verse]
F#m
Their children woke
up
Bm
And they couldn't
find them
C#7
F#m
They left before the
sun came up that
day
F#7
Bm
They just drove off
and left it all
behind'em
F#m
C#7
But where were they
going without
ever
F#m
E
Knowing the way?
[Chorus]
E
A
Anyone can see the
road that they walk
on
E
Is paved with
gold
F#m
It's always
summer
C#7
They'll never get
cold
D
They'll never get
hungry
A
E
They'll never get
old and grey
A
E
You can see their
shadows wandering
off somewhere
F#m
They won't make it
home
C#7
But they really
don't care
D
They wanted the
highway
A
E C#7
They're happier
there today
