Lost Highway Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You[C] kn[G]ow,[D] I don't know why,[G]
but most people [D]think of
Hank
Williams when you mention
[G]David
Allen
Coe's name, and maybe it's [D]because
the ride was such a hit for [C]me.[G]
But [D]I was so disappointed when they did a
TV special [C]on
Hank
[G]Williams this year and
they asked
[D]John
Anderson to sing the ride [G]instead of me,
it broke [D]my heart.
And I was telling
Mo [A]about that [G]at
King
Records.
[A]They had just released
my latest al[D]bum,
Lone[G]some
Fugitive, and he said, [D]well, why don't we
go in the studio and cut
a tribute album [G]to
Hank, [A]an [D]d call i[A]t
The
Ghost [D]of
Hank
Williams
after the song you wrote [G]at
Hank's grave.
And I [D]said, man, that'd be [C]great.
And
Mo [G]said, [D]well, what's your favorite
Hank
Williams song[G]s?
I picked up the gui[D]tar,
started [A]playing it, and [G]I went...
I'm a [D]rolling [C]stone, [G]all [D]alone and [C]lost
[G]A l[D]ife of s[C]in, I[G] have pa[D]id the co[A]st
When I pass [G]by, [D]all[G] the people say
[D]Jus[C]t ano[G]ther guy on[D]
[C]the[G] lost highway
[D]Jus[C]t a d[D]eck of cards
[C]an [G]d a jug of win[D]e
[C]An [G]d a woman's lie[D]s
[G]makes a life like [A]mine
On the day we [G]met, I went [D]astray
[G]I started d[D]own t[C]hat l[G]ost highway
[D][C][D][C][G]
[D][C][G][D][C][G]
[D]I w[C]as [D]just a lad,
[C]merely [G]twenty -two[D]
[C]Neither [G]good nor bad[D],
[C]jus[G]t a kid like you[A]
And now I'm [G]lost, too late to [D]pray
[C]Lord, [G]I paid the cos[D]t,
[C]on [G]the lost highway[D]
[C]Now [D]boys don't stop,
[C]you're [G]running around
[D]On [G]the road of sin[D],
[C]oh [G]you're sorrow bound[A]
Take my ad[G]vice, you'll curse the [D]day
[C]You [G]started traveling dow[D]n
[G]That lost [D]highway, [G]that lost highway
[D]Tha[G]t lost highway[D],
[C]that [G]old lost highway[D][G][D][C][G]
You
