[C] [Am] [F]
[C] [Am] [Cm] [F] [C]
There are many new roads we see each day.
[F] Each one claims they [C] are the way to a [F] life of [C] [G] satisfaction [C] more than we dream.
They're bound with things that please the eye, but they [F] cannot [C]
[F] satisfy.
[C] So I decided to [Am] walk the [G] highway [C] with 3D.
I'll take the old highway, the one called straight.
It's the very network, all [G] the way to the gate.
It's [C] all there.
Cowboy, that's [Am] where I got [F] on.
[C] The highway [Am] paved with [G] grace [C] all the way [F] home.
[C] Our [Am]
[F] [C] [Cm]
[F] [C] highway may look to worldly men like [F] it's a road to a [C] bitter end.
For we are [F] promised [C] tribulation all along.
The difference is easy to [C] explain, for we have [F] everything [C] to [F] gain.
[C] So just count me [Am] in a [G] number [C] going home.
I'll take the old highway, the one called straight.
It's the very network, all [G]
the way to the gate.
It's [C] all there.
Cowboy, that's [Am] where I got [F] on.
[C] The highway [Am] paved with [G] grace [C] all the way home.
[C] I'll take the old highway, the one called straight.
[G] It's [C] the very network, all [G] the way to the gate.
It [C] started at [G] [C] Calvary, [Am] that's where I got [F] on.
It's [C] the old highway [Am] paved [G] with grace [C] all the way home.
