| [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
[Solo 1]
F#m Bm F#m C#7 F#m
[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
