🎸 Verse 1:
G
Life's like a road that you travel on
             D
When there's one day here and the next day gone
    A
Sometimes you bend and sometimes you stand
 
Sometimes you turn your head to the wind
          G
There's a world outside every darkened door
      D
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
          A
Where the brave are free and lovers soar

Come ride with me to the distant shore
 
Bm
We won't hesitate
A
Break down the garden's gate
G                            Em
There's not much time left today
 
🎸 Chorus:
 Bm    A  G
Life is a highway
G D/F#  D        G  D/F#  A     G  D/F#  A
I wanna ride it all night long
   Bm     A     G
If you're going my way
G D/F#  D        G  D/F#  A     G  D/F#  A
I wanna drive it all night long
 
🎸 Verse 2:
G
Through all these cities and all these towns
     D
It's in my blood and it's all around
  A
I love you now like I loved you then
 
This is the road and these are the hands
     G
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
    D
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights
A
Knock me down back up again
 
You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man
 
Bm
There's no load I can't hold
A
Road so rough this I know
G
I'll be there when the light comes in
     Em
Just tell 'em we're survivors
 
🎸 Chorus: (x2)
 Bm    A  G
Life is a highway
G D/F#  D        G  D/F#  A     G  D/F#  A
I wanna ride it all night long
   Bm     A     G
If you're going my way
G D/F#  D        G  D/F#  A     G  D/F#  A
I wanna drive it all night long
 
Em          G                  Bm       A
There was a distance between you and I
Em           G                 Bm                    A
  A misunderstanding once, but now we look in the eye
 
[Solo]
 
Bm
There's no load I can't hold
A
Road so rough this I know
G
I'll be there when the light comes in
     Em
Just tell 'em we're survivors

Life is a highway
