[Intro]
E A E A E A G# C#m Bm A E
[Verse]
EWay outta town on some Bmidnight highway
AHeaded nowhere, was just Edrivin' by myself
EThe night was cold, Bthe wind was blowin'
AMe, I felt like EI was someone else
[Pre-Chorus]
AI was achin', EI was alone
ANo destination, Eso far away from home
ASuddenly I find myself Ecallin' to the heavens above
APlease send me someone tEo love
[Chorus]
EWhich way to hAappiness? Over the moEuntain
EWhich way to fAreedom? Just across tEhe sea
ELord, I been sAearchin' for what sG#eems like foC#mrever, now
BmWhich way to hAappiness for someone like Eme?
E A E A E A G# C#m Bm A E
[Verse]
EIt seems like I spend mBy whole life runnin'
ARunnin' away from whEat I couldn't be
EDown some endless roBad just south of nowhere
AAlways movin' but neEver really free
[Pre-Chorus]
AI had a dream, EI said a prayer
F#mJust like the answer, Eyou were standin' there
AThe neon sign that was Efifteen stories tall
AI could hear the angels Ecall
[Chorus]
EThis way to hAappiness, the train is leEavin'
EOver the moAuntain, headin' to sEea
EHighway to fAreedom is when G#you start C#mbelievin'
BmThis way to hAappiness, you and Eme
[Bridge]
C#mI've rolled this rig from Bcoast to coast
AI've seen alot, I've done Bmore than most
C#mI was like a sailor Blost at sea
AWhen, like an angel from above, you came Bdown and rescued me
[Chorus]
This way to hAappiness, the train is leEavin'
