Intro:
E MajorE A augmentedA

Verse 1:
E MajorE
I took to the highway
A augmentedA
Went out to Pico-Crenshaw
E MajorE        A augmentedA
Old friends, old friends
E MajorE
I took to the highway
A augmentedA
The highway took to me
    E MajorE    A augmentedA
Like a second skin

Chorus:
BB           A augmentedA
Rolled around in the evening
         E MajorE
Circling like a buzzard
      BB
Trouble in mind
E MajorE       A augmentedA    BB   E MajorE
Excavating the space we left behind

E MajorE A augmentedA

Verse 2:
E MajorE
Yes, I took trinkets with me
A augmentedA
Left them by the crater
E MajorE        A augmentedA
Hear ghosts, old ghosts
E MajorE
Smelled all the chlorine
A augmentedA
I took the low road
     E MajorE       A augmentedA
Where the light was just right

Chorus:
BB            A augmentedA
Crawled around in the glowing
         E MajorE
All-embracing wreckage
           BB
Sun-burned and snow-blind
E MajorE       A augmentedA    BB   E MajorE
Excavating the space we left behind

E MajorE A augmentedA
