Endless Highway

A

[Verse]

G                        D
Take a silver dollar and put it in your pocket,
   A                   E
Never let it slip away.
G                D                A
 Always be a man, not a boy gone astray.
D        D/C#        Bm Bm/A E                   A
 When ya get half cra-zy      from the August heat
D       D/C#            Bm  Bm/A
 Or on a frozen, rotted road
    E
With no one to complain to about your achin' feet.

[Chorus]

A    G        D                    A
 You're gonna walk that endless highway,
D              E                 A
 Walk that high-way till you die.
    G   D                 A
All you children goin' my way,
D                     E               A
 Better tell your home-life sweet goodbye.

[Verse]

G                   D
When I see a detour up ahead,
        A            E
Well, I leave it far behind,
G                     D           A
Who knows what you're apt to find there.
D        D/C#    Bm Bm/A  E              A
With the cost of livin, and the price of dyin',
D       D/C#      Bm  Bm/A
Well it look like t'me this time
E
I wont be buyin'

[Chorus]

A    G        D                    A
 You're gonna walk that endless highway,
D              E                 A
 Walk that high-way till you die.
    G   D                 A
All you children goin' my way,
D                     E               A
 Better tell your home-life sweet goodbye.

[Verse]

G                         D
When they get a scapegoat by the throat,
          A               E
it's hard labour and cold beans.
G                          D                        A
If ya get away real quick, you'll be eatin from the poison peanut machine.
D       D/C#   Bm Bm/A E         A
Well, I sing by night, wander by day.
D   D/C#  Bm Bm/A
I'm on the road
E
and it looks like I'm here to stay.

[Chorus]

A    G        D                    A
 You're gonna walk that endless highway,
D              E                 A
 Walk that high-way till you die.
    G   D                 A
All you children goin' my way,
D                     E               A
 Better tell your home-life sweet goodbye.

D  E  A
