[E] [D] [A] [B]
[E] Picking [B] up the pieces [G#] of my sweet [C#m] shattered dream
[A] I wonder [E] how the old folks are [B] tonight
Her [E] name was [B] Ann and I'll be [G#] damned if I [C#m] recall her face
[A] She left [B] me not knowing [E] what to do
[D] Carefree [A] highway, [B] let me slip away [E] on you
[D] Carefree [A] highway, [B] you've seen better [C#m] days
The morning [B] after blues, [A] from the [E] head down to [F#] my shoes
[E] [D] Carefree [A] highway, [B] let me slip away, slip [E] away on you
[D] [A]
[B] [E] [D] [A]
[B] [E] Turning [B] back the pages [G#] to the times [C#m] I loved best
[A] I wonder [E] if she'll ever [B] do the same
[E] Now the thing that [B] I call living [G#] is just being [C#m] satisfied
[A] With nowhere am [B] I gone, no one [E] left to blame
[D] Carefree highway, [A] I [B] got to see you, [E] my old flame
[D] Carefree [A] highway, [B] you've seen better [C#m] days
The morning [B] after blues, [A] from the [E] head down [F#] to my shoes
[E] [D] [A] Carefree highway, [B] let me slip away, slip [E] away on you
[D]
[A] [B] [E] [D]
[A] [B] [E] Searching [B] through the fragments [G#] of my dream [C#m] shattered [B] sleep
[A] I wonder [E] if the years have closed her mind
[B] I [E] guess it [B] must be [G#] wanderlust or trying [C#m] to get free
[A] From the good old [B] faithful feeling we [E] once knew
[D] [A] Carefree highway, [B] let me slip away [E] on you
[D] Carefree [A] highway, [B] you've seen better [C#m] days
The morning [B] after blues, [A] from the [E] head down to [B] my shoes
[F#] [E] [D] Carefree highway, [A] [B] let me slip away, slip [E] away on you
[D] Let [A] [B] me slip away [E] on you
[D] Carefree highway, [A] I [B] got to see you, [E] my old flame
