Green Lights

D A G A D

[Verse 1]
G              A             D
Here I am back on the road again
 G                  A                  D
Don't it feel just like my old worst friend
     G                    A             D
The ne'er do well that a mother prays against
 G                  A           D
Jack Kerouac meets Huckleberry Finn

[Verse 2]
 G              A                 D
Yes I know the ways of this old friend of mine
               G               A             D
He's got some good intentions misinterpreted every time
           G                A             D
Said "the road is long and winding" but what he really meant
         G               A                D
Was the comfort you are seeking will not meet you at the end

[Chorus 1]
G                     D
Gets me going like a fiddle tune
G                        D
Don't even know what my feet are doing
G           A                   D
Hey, don't fiddlers earn their pay, OK
G                     D
Green lights all the way to nowhere
G               D
Half the fun is in the getting there
    G                 A                      D
And once you figure that out you're on your way

[Verse 3]
G                A              D
Oh, it's hot out on the road today
    G                A               D
No cover, no cloud, no chance for escape
   G             A      D
Except that 18 wheeler on the straight-away
      G                   A                 D
So I pull up, match his speed and steal some shade

[Chorus 2]
G                   D
Guess I got me the Gypsy virus
G                D
No cure for the ramblin-itis
   G         A                D
Except some asphalt and some days, fine days
G                     D
Green lights all the way to nowhere
G                D
Half the fun is just in getting there
    G                 A                      D
And once you figure that out you're on your way

[Solo]

[Verse 4]
     G                 A                 D
The road can give you fortunes that are yours to use or keep
   G                 A               D
Or it can take your very life if it lulls you off to sleep
     G           A                D
But so can any style of life or friend that you might choose
    G               A                        D
So being dead and friendless, man that's the only way to lose

[Chorus 3]
G                       D
Tomorrow shines like a gold doubloon
G                         D
You could have it if you wanted to
G                 A                         D
You just have to hold your mouth the right way, that's the way
G                     D
Green lights all the way to nowhere
G               D
All the fun is just the getting there
    G                 A                      D
And once you figure that out you're on your way

Well I'd best be on, Well I think I'm on, I'm finally on my way
