[Verse 1]
GHe never knew their names and never Cadd9really cared
Lying to Emhimself, he was never just a Dyoung kid scared
GLiving on his own with no one to Cadd9hold on to
EmNowhere to go and Dnothing to do
Cadd9But lie awake and pray that one day
Cadd9Someone will come his way
[Chorus]
All he Gknows are
Highways and bDroken hearts
EmLate nights and oCadd9ld guitars
GWondering wDhere you are
You're Emso fDar aCadd9way
[Verse 2]
GHis shoes are worn and tired and not Cadd9at their best
Like a gyEmpsy never sure where he'll be Dgoing next
GSuperficial friends, and girls wiCadd9th glazed over eyes
EmIt's a good time, Dbut just for the night
Cadd9Then off he'll go to maybe Mexico
Cadd9Then off to Colorado
[Chorus]
All he Gknows are
Highways and bDroken hearts
EmLate nights and oCadd9ld guitars
GWondering wDhere you are
You're Emso fDar aCadd9way
[Verse 3]
GStaring through the walls of that moCadd9tel room
ReflectinEmg on his days, the route that Dhe's seemed to choose
GWill good outshine the bad, can hCadd9e turn this thing around
EmShould he drop to Dhis knees, just give up now
Cadd9Begging for release in the night
Cadd9Has he gone too far to fight?
[Chorus]
All he Gknows are
Highways and bDroken hearts
EmLate nights and oCadd9ld guitars
GWondering wDhere you are
You're Emso fDar aCadd9way
[Outro]
You're Emso fDar aCadd9way
You're Emso fDar aCadd9way
