[Chorus]
E B E
It's an easy ride from good times to the blues
E B A
I've been riding that old highway, flashing signs to help me choose
E B C#m A
Yeah, I know I've done you wrong, didn't take me long
E B E B
It's an easy ride from good times to the blues
[Verse 1]
E B
Driving ninety nine and making time
C#m A
Hauling for the Red Ball line
E B
A hundred thousand hours behind the wheel
E B
Just a little smile from you
C#m A
The rig is running true
E B E B
Took me fifty nights alone to break with you
[Chorus]
E B E
It's an easy ride from good times to the blues
E B A
I've been riding that old highway, flashing signs to help me choose
E B C#m A
Hell, I know I've done you wrong, didn't take me long
E B E B
It's an easy ride from good times to the blues
[Verse 2]
E B
Starlight Cafe out on sixty four
C#m A
Waitress said she'd offer more
E B
The sun was going down in her life too
E B
Strong coffee and a ten watt lover
C#m A
Looking to the rooms to cover
E B E E7
My early morning thoughts roll back to you
[Bridge]
A B E B
I've been riding hard and my wheels call your name
G# C#m A B
Well, San Antone you summer love, how could it be the same
E B
You old gray mare, you wait
C#m A
Said I were no saint
E B E B
If you can live with that you're way ahead of the game
