Highway Forty Blues chords by Ricky Skaggs

Guitar chords with lyrics

G                        Am
Well these Highway Forty blues

D7                           G
I've walked holes in both my shoes

                                 Am
Counted the days since I've been gone

D7                                G
And I'd love to see the lights of home


                      C
Wasted time and money too

D7                            G
Squandered youth in search of truth

Em                      Am
But in the end I had to lose

                        D7
Lord above I've paid my dues

                      G
Got the Highway Forty blues


                              Am
The highway called when I was young

D7                        G
Told me lies of things to come

                      Am
Fame and fortune lies ahead

D7                                   G
That's what the billboard lights had said


                            C
Shattered dreams my mind is numb

D7                           G
My money's gone stick out my thumb

Em                             Am
My eyes are filled with bitter tears

                          D7
Lord I ain't been home in years

                      G
Got the Highway Forty blues


                          Am
You know I've rambled all around

D7                                G
Like a rolling stone from town to town

                           Am
Met pretty girls I have to say

D7                             G
But none of them could make me stay


                                     C
Well I've played the music halls and bars

D7                             G
Had fancy clothes and big fine cars

Em                         Am
Things a country boy can't use

                      D7
Dixieland I sure miss you

                      G
