pickin up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream ,
G D Asus4 A
i wonder how the old folks are tonight?
D A F# Bm
her name was ann , and i’ll be damned if i recall her face;
G D A
she left me not knowing what to do .

D C G A D
carefree highway , let me slip away on you
C G A
carefree highway , you’ve seen better days
Bm A G D E
the morning after blues , from my head down to my shoes

carefree highway , let me slip away , slip away on you

turning back the pages to the times i love best

with knowing i got no one left to blame

D A F# Bm A
searching thru the fragments of my dream shattered sleep;
G D Asus4 A
i wonder if the years have closed her mind?
D A F# Bm
well i guess it must be wander lust or trying to get free ,
G D A
from the good old faithful feeling we once knew

carefree highway i got to see you my old flame

carefree highway , let me slip away , slip away on you
