A Asus4 A
Time went so quickly,
C#m
I went lickety splitly
D A
out to my Ol'55
A Asus4 A
As I pulled away slowly
C#m
feeling so holy
D E7
god knows I was feeling alive
[Chorus]
A C#m D D/E E7
Now the suns comming up
A C#m D D/E E7
I'm riding with lady luck
A C#m D D/E E7
freeways cars and trucks
Bm E A
stars beginning to fade
Bm E A
and I lead the parade
Bm E
and I wish that I could
F#m
stay a little longer
B E E7
ooh 'cause this fellings getting stronger
[Verse 2]
(same chords as verse 1)
Six in the mornin'
gave me no warnin'
had to be on my way
now the cars are all passin' me
trucks are all flashin' me
'n I'm headed home from your place
Ver. 2
