Start Jamming...
[F] [C] [F] I'm sitting down by the highway, [Bb] down by that highway sign.
[F]
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
Everybody's going somewhere, riding just as fast as they can ride.
[C] But I guess they got a lot to [Dm] do before they [Bb] can rest to shoot [F] their lives, [C] or justify.
[Bb] [F] Pray to God for me, baby, [Bb] he can let me [F] slide.
I've been up and down this highway,
[Bb] far as my [F] eyes can see.
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] No matter how fast I run, I can never seem to get [F] away from me.
[Bb] [F]
[C] No matter where I, [Dm]
I cannot think, and I'm [C] just a day away from [Bb] you.
Now [F] I'm running home, baby, like a river to the sea.
Baby, if you could see me, out [Bb] across this wilderness, [F] that's just the one thing [C] I was hoping you might get.
Baby, if [Dm] you could free me, [Bb] I'm the power of your [C] sweet [F] tenderness, [Bb] yeah.
[F]
[C] [F] I can see it in your eyes, [Bb] you got the most bright baby [F] blue.
[Bb] [C]
[Bb] You're not sure what you got to give me, but you know I like the [F] blues.
[F]
[C] You watch yourself from the sidelines, [Dm]
like your life [Bb] is a game.
You don't [F] mind playing, keep yourself [Bb] immune.
I don't mean [F] to be cruel, baby, [Bb] but you're looking at me.
[C] Baby, [F] if you can hear me, turn [Bb] down your radio, [F] that's just the one thing I [C]
want you to know.
When you've [Dm] been near me, I [Bb] felt the love [C] stirring in my [F] soul, [Bb] oh yeah.
[F] Oh yeah, [C] yeah.
[Bb]
[F] [Bb] [F]
[G] [Bb]
[F] [Bb] [F]
[C] [Dm]
[F] [C] [Bb]
[F]
But it's so hard to come by
[Bb] that theme of [F] peace.
One just good friend of mine said to me, [Bb] hold your life.
And try [F] to feel at ease.
[C] I thought I was flying like a [Dm] bird, so far above my [F] sorrow.
But when I looked down, I was standing on [Bb] my knees.
Now I [F] need someone to help me, [Bb] someone [F] to help me.
Baby, if you need me, [Bb] I'm not going to need you, [F] that's just the one thing I'll ask you to do.
Take my [Dm] hand and lead me to the [Bb] point where I'm not [C] alone.
I'm [F] pulling [Bb] through, [F]
I'm pulling through.
[Bb] [F] [Bb] [F]
[Bb]
[F] [F]
[C] [Dm]
[F] [C] [Bb]
[F] [C]
