The Way Fastball

They [am] made up their minds and they started [dm] packing

They [am/E]left before the [E]sun came up that [am]day

An [A7] exit to eternal [dm]slacking

But [am] where were they going with[E]out ever knowing the[am]way? [G]

They [am] drank up the wine and they got to [dm]talking

They [am]now had more im[E]portant things to [am]say

And [A7]when the car broke down they started [dm]walking

But [am] where were they going with[E]out ever knowing the[am]way? [G]

Chorus:

Anyone could see the [C]road that they walk on is [G]paved in gold

And [am]it's always summer, they'll [E]never get cold

They'll [F]never get hungry. They'll [C]never get old and gray.[G]

You can see their [C]shadows wandering [G]off somewhere

They [am]won't get make it home, but they [E]really don't care

They [F]wanted the highway. They're [C]happy there to[G]day, today

The [am]children woke up and they couldn't [dm]find them

They [am/E]left before the [E]sun came up that [am]day

They [A7]just drove off and left it all be[dm]hind them

But [am] where were they going with[E]out ever knowing the[am]way? [G]

Chorus 2 x's
