intro: Dmaj7 / D / D6 / Dmaj7 / D / D6 / Dmaj7 / D / D6

D Bm D Bm
The kid's left home, the kid's got a kid of her own
D Bm D Bm
Don't knock that door, don't knock it, nobody's home

Get on the blue highways, follow the blue highways
Em Bm Em Bm
You know that they're there, you know that they're there
F#m G A Bm
Where the real America lies
Em Bm Em Bm Em D Bm D Bm
Blue highways, blue highways, blue highways
