My Favorite Highway


Tom: F

(intro) C Bb F

(verso 1)
  C
Somewhere inside me
 Bb
Something is hiding
 F
Something I never knew
 C
If I'm open and honest
 Bb
Keeping my promise
 F
Someday I'll see this through

(pré-chorus)
  C
I can't hear anything
 A#
Listening, I'm listening
 C
I need the space to move
 A#
Breaking through to something new
 C                         A#
I need the chance to feel something real, something real
  G
Everything I know is spinning out of control

(chorus)
   C                              Bb
So, so, so tell me where do we go
                                                     F
There is a burning that's inside of my soul, and it shows
                          G
We all want something more than just a simple life
      C                            Bb
Hey, hey, so give me something to say
                                                      F
I had the words but then I through 'em away, and you know
                            G
We all want something more than just a simple life

(verso 2)
If I walk in a straight line
Wait for the right time
How can I know for sure
They'll tell you how to get by
Just put your life on standby
And in the end you hope that you were right

(pre-chorus)
(chorus)

(bridge)
      A
So believe what you want
            G
No, you're not who you thought
     F                            C
The more you fake the harder you fall

(last chorus)
So, so, so tell me where do we go
There is a burning inside of my soul, and it shows
We all want something more than just a simple life
Hey, hey, so give me something to say
I wanted nothing and I gave it all, gave it all away
We all want something more than just a simple life

( C Bb F )
