Midnight Highway Tabs

(ver. 2)
Daphne Loves Derby
Well everyone, this is my first tab. I couldn't find any accurate tabs for this song, so 
decided to tab it myself. Midnight Highway is a good song to play and sing at the same 
because, both vocals and guitar are easy.

The tab is probably 85-90% accurate.
(Listen to the song for strumming pattern.)

Your bitter goodbye is ringing through this quiet night,

This idle hour just won't pass

I've never missed you this much, never thought I would,

Didn't think you'd feel this far away

Your summer perfume is still blowing through this hallway,

Autumn's amber red shadows dance

I miss our midnight rides on highway 18, 18 is gone

So go past the lights and all the excuses

You could have left "sincerely yours"

Don't you think it's obvious that I want to say more?

I'm thinking of your vague reply

So I can understand

Why we put this at rest

Why we forget to

Say that we were leaving

Say that I was sorry

The past remains unspoken

As this vacant night is dieing

But I still miss your summer perfume

This cold air brings such a distance to us


Such a painful distance

I'm still waiting for you to say you hate me now

So I don't have to hold on to this burning heart


This burning heart is getting old, is getting old

And While sitting on this cold kitchen floor,

Head down to hide the tears,
I've realized. I've finally realized

You were never meant for me

Thats it....Nice song overall
