[G]
[Db] [Ab] [C]
[Em] [Ab]
[Eb] Men walk along the railroad tracks
Going [Db] some place and there's no [Db] going back
Our patrol chopper's coming up over the ridge
Hot [Ebm] soup on a campfire under the [Eb] bridge
Shed the line stretching round the cone
[Gb] Welcome to [B] the new world
[Ab] Family sleeping in their cars in the southwest
No [Eb] home, no job, no peace, no rest
[B] Highway is alive tonight
Nobody's [Db] kidding, nobody of our weary [Eb] foes
I'm [Ab] sitting down here in the campfire light
[Ebm]
Searching for the [Eb] golden town road
Post a prayer book [Ebm] out of this living bag
[Gb] Reach the lights up above and it [Ab] takes a drag
Waiting for when the last of the first and the first of the [Db] last
[Ebm]
Cornboard box with the underpass
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
You got a hole in your belly and a gun [Db] in your arm
Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
[Abm] Living in the city's happy run
But [B] the highway is alive tonight
[Gb] Where it's headed, [Eb] everybody knows
[Db] Sitting down here in the campfire light
[Ebm] Waiting on the golden town road
[B]
[Gb] [Ebm]
[Db] [Ebm]
[Eb]
Wherever there's a cloud, beat it again
Like a hundred newborn [Ab] babies rest
Where there's [Db] a fight against the blood and hatred in the air
[Ebm] Look for me, mama
Where somebody's struggling for a place to stand
[Gb] Or a decent job or a [Db] healthy man
Where somebody's struggling to be free
[Ebm] Looking their eyes from the hills
[Eb] [B] But the highway is alive tonight
Nobody's [Gb] kidding nobody about where [Ebm] it goes
[Db] Sitting down here in the campfire light
Waiting for the golden town road
