E 022100 B 224442
A 002220
[E]Down every road there's [A]always one more [B]city,
I'm [A]on the run the [B]highway is my [E]home.
[E]I raised a lotta [A]cain back in my [B]younger days,
While [A]mama used to [B]pray my crops would [E]fail.
[E]Now I'm a hunted [A]fugitive with [B]just two way's,
Out[A]run the law or [B]spend my life in [E]jail.
Chorus:
[E]I'd like to settle [A]down but they won't [B]let me,
A [A]fugitive must be a rollin [B]stone.
Down [E]every road there's [A]always one more [B]city,
I'm [A]on the run the [B]highway is my [E]home.
[E]I'm lonely but I [A]can't afford the [B]luxury,
Of [A]having the one I [B]love to come a[E]long.
[E]She'd only slow me [A]down and they catch [B]up with me,
For [A]he who travels [B]fastest goes a[E]lone.
Sing Chorus
I'm [A]on the run the [B]highway is my [E]home.
