Note: I have a strong feeling that both acoustic & electric guitars is
   not Standard Tuning or maybe only the acoustic guitar. But anyway
   if you think it is other tunings then do so & change the chords
   notation given below. So that it will sound almost the same.

Standard Tuning: EADGbe

Chords Used:

 C majorC FF G+G A7A7
e| 0  1  3  0
b| 1  1  3  2
G+G| 0  2  0  0
D MajorD| 2  3  0  2
A augmentedA| 3  3  2  0
E MajorE| 0  1  3  X

Note: Verse 1 & Verse 2 don't really have lots of guitaring but anyway
   here is the chords.

Verse 1:

C majorC               FF
I'm a rollin' stone all alone and lost,

       G+G        A7A7
For a life of sin I have paid the cost,

  FF           G+G
As I walk by all the people say,

       A7A7       FF  C majorC
Just another guy on the lost highway,

Verse 2:

C majorC               FF
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine,

       G+G          A7A7
And a woman's life makes a life like mine,

  FF          G+G
On the day we met, I went astray,

     A7A7          FF  C majorC
I started going down that lost highway,

Note: You just got to listen to the song to understand this part. This
   is a acoustic part done by Chris while Jonny is on the electric
   in the 3rd & 4th verse. For those who don't know, p is pull off
   or drag to another barr in 1 strike, h is hammer or hit your
   finger on 1 barr with 1 finger on the lower barr in 1 strike, r
   is release your finger on a higher barr with another finger on
   the lower barr in 1 strike. So below you'll see that I've mixed
   in both plucking & struming into a tab chart.

Verse 3:

C majorC             FF
I was just a lad, only twenty two,

         G+G         A7A7
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you,

  FF               G+G
On the day we met, it's too late to pray,

     A7A7          FF  C majorC
I started going down that lost highway,

Verse 4:

C majorC               FF
Now boys don't start to ramblin' round,

        G+G         A7A7
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound,

   FF             G+G
Take my advice or you'll curse the day,

      A7A7           FF  C majorC
You started rollin' down that lost highway,

      A7A7          FF  C majorC
You started goin' down that lost highway,

   A7A7       FF  C majorC
Goin' down that lost highway,

   A7A7       FF  C majorC
Goin' down that lost highway,

Note: I guess everything is not lost here, maybe for the instrumental
   part I might miss some stuff there cause I can't trace every
