[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
(G)                  D                  C  G  
Blue Kentucky highway, headin' for the line
She hadn't said a Dword all night, but the Cwheels are turning in her Gmind
Now I was ridin' Cshotgun, and I knew things had gone aGwry
Just as soon as she Adropped me off at the side of the road
And she Dlet that gravel fly
[Chorus]
   DN.C.               G  
Now I'm walkin' in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the Ctaillights
And Gthat's a pair of Emtaillights
I may Anever see aDgain
She hit me with a Gleft and right
Showin' me nothin' but the Ctaillights
GThat's about as Emlonely as a Ahighway has ever been
CBack here with my Dthumb out in the wGind
[Verse 2]
(G)                               D                        C  G  
Was it something that I did to her, or the things I never said
I wonder if the Dway we were Cwas only in my Ghead
Now if I even make it Cback to town before the sun comes Gup
I'm gonna hit Aevery parking spot around
Till I Dfind that pickup truck
[Chorus]
   DN.C.               G  
Now I'm talkin' in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the Ctaillights
And Gthat's a pair of Emtaillights
I may Anever see aDgain
She hit me with a Gleft and right
Showin' me nothin' but the Ctaillights
GThat's about as Emlonely as a Ahighway has ever been
CBack here with my Dthumb out in the wGind
[Bridge]
(G)        Em  
Well, I'll bet right now she's laughin' at how
She Abrought me to my knees
But she Amwon't be laughin' half as loud when she Dgives me back my keys
[Chorus]
      DN.C.              G  
She'll be walkin' in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the Ctaillights
And Gthat's a pair of Emtaillights
She won't Aever see aDgain
She hit me with a Gleft and right
And with nothin' but the Ctaillights
And I know Gthat's about as Emlonely as a Ahighway has ever been
CBack here with my Dthumb out in the wGind
[Outro]
  GThere she goes
  GHere I come
  GLeave me out here in the middle of nowhere ...
