Honky-Tonks, Highways & Hell
		written 2005

INTRO: D G A Bm

D                            G
There's a hundred miles of highway
A                            Bm    A
After that there's a hundred more
D                             G
Stretched before me like a promise
A                   Bm       A
Some fool made long ago


Neither rain nor dark of night
Nor even my aching heart
Shall stop these wheels from rollin'
Takin' me onward through the dark


CHORUS:
G                    D
All I see is that horizon
Bm       A                   D      
Forever elludes my yearning hands
G                        D
That white line leads me forward
Bm       D        A7
Into unfamiliar lands
G                           D
Six strings and a beat-up engine
Bm        A          D
Keep me glued to the road
G                          D      G/F#
Until the day they lay me under
Bm              A         G                  D     INTRO
Honky-tonks, highways and hell......is all I know


My life is filled with neon music
Sunrise welcomes me to the dawn
A barmaid every now and then
Keeps the nights from getting long

A dancefloor and a shot of whiskey
A guitar and a hurtin' song
A couple drinks to ease away my pain
So I won't remember what I did wrong

CHORUS


BRIDGE:
G                         D
And it's like that song I wrote
G                        D       D/F#
When I first grabbed my guitar
G                              D         Bm
You'll never know where you're going
G                      D        A7 (let ring)
Until you know who you are

CHORUS
