Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Radio and drum samples]
[Em][Em][Em][Em]

[Verse 1]
They [Em]made up their minds
and they started [Am]packing
They [B]left before the sun came up that [Em]day
An [E]exit to eternal summer [Am]slacking
But [Em]where were they going
[B]without ever knowing the [Em]way?

[Verse 2]
They [Em]drank up the wine and they got to [Am]talking
They [B]now had more important things to [Em]say
And [E]when the car broke down
they started [Am]walking
[Em]Where were they going
[B]without ever knowing the [Em]way?[D]

[Chorus 1]
Anyone can see the [G]road that they walk on is
[D]paved with gold
[Em]It's always summer they'll [B]never get cold
They'll [C]never get hungry,
they'll [G]never get old and [D]gray
You can see their [G]shadows wandering
[D]off somewhere
They [Em]won't make it home
but they [B]really don't care
They [C]wanted the highway,
they're [G]happier there
to[D]day, to[B]day[B]

[Verse 3]
The [Em]children woke up
and they couldnt' [Am]find 'em
They [B]left before the sun came up that [Em]day
They [E]just drove off and left it all be[Am]hind 'em
[Em]Where were they going
[B]without ever knowing the [Em]way?[D]

[Chorus 2]
Anyone can see the [G]road that they walk on is
[D]paved with gold
[Em]It's always summer they'll [B]never get cold
They'll [C]never get hungry,
they'll [G]never get old and [D]gray
You can see their [G]shadows wandering
[D]off somewhere
They [Em]won't make it home
but they [B]really don't care
They [C]wanted the highway,
they're [G]happier there
to[D]day, to[B]day[B]

[Solo 1]
[Em][Em][Am][Am]
[Em][B][Em][Em]

[Chorus 3]
Anyone can see the [G]road that they walk on is
[D]paved with gold
[Em]It's always summer they'll [B]never get cold
They'll [C]never get hungry,
they'll [G]never get old and [D]gray
You can see their [G]shadows wandering
[D]off somewhere
They [Em]won't make it home
but they [B]really don't care
They [C]wanted the highway,
they're [G]happier there
to[D]day, to[B]day[B]
[B][B]

[Outro 1]
[Em][Em][Am][Am]
