I was about 14 years old [C#] when I first had the [F#] whoopin' [C#] on.
[F#] [C#] [F#] Yassie sneaked me through the [B] door, there was whiskey [F#] on the [B] floor, [C#] and a bar table [F#] on [C#] the floor.
[A#m] [A] Yassie seemed so [G#] gonna go, [F#] I'm [G] living [G#] on the [E] highway [C#] [A#m] now.
[C#] [F#] Yassie's a giant and a man, he always understand, [C#] the very best knows to use.
[F#] His hand make your mind, his heart beat right on time, [C#] he taught me how to sing the blues.

[A] That's why I [G#] sing this blues, [F#] I'm [G] living [G#] on the [C#] highway [F#] now.
[C#] [F#] [C#] [F#] Yassie's up, come and gone, but the blues still go [C#] on, I only sing my song for fun.
[F#] Yassie if you ask me to, I'll do a song for you, [C#] cause the women like to [F#] see me go.
[C#] [A] That's me and [G#] my guitar and my [F#] band, [G] we're living [G#m] on the [C#] highway now.
[F#]
Say what man, what you doing with that [C#] long knife in your pocket?
Let me tell you something boy, [F#] I'd rather go to your funeral than a day for you to come to mine.
You sure as gold man.
[C#] I don't want no more damn.
[F#]
[C#] You better cut out that howlin' cause leave that to me.

[C#]
[F#] Better watch yourself [C#] son, you gonna hurt yourself.
