Here's an easy song that's fun to play (the other TABs weren't as thorough as this one);
chords are easy and it's in standard tuning.
CHORDS USED:
F#m= xxx222
Bm= xxx432
C#= xxx121
F#= xxx322
E= 022100
A= x0220
D= xx(0)232
Verse 1
------
[F#m]They made up their minds
And they started [Bm]packing
They [C#]left before the sun came up that da[F#m]y
An [F#]exit to eternal summer sla[Bm]cking
But [F#m]where were they going with[C#]out ever
Knowing the [F#m]way?
Verse 2
------
[F#m]They drank up the wine
And they got to [Bm]talking
They [C#]now had more important things to sa[F#m]y
(And) W[F#]hen the car broke down they started wal[Bm]king
W[F#m]here were they going with[C#]out even
Knowing the [F#m]way? E
Chorus
[-----]
[E]Anyone can see the [A]road that they walk on
Is p[E]aved with gold
[F#m]It's always summer
They'll n[C#]ever get cold
They'll [D]never get hungry
They'll [A]never get old and g[E]rey
You can see their [A]shadows wandering o[E]ff somewhere
They w[F#m]on't make it home
But they re[C#]ally don't care
They [D]wanted the highway
They're [A]happier there to[E]day[C#]
Verse 3
-------
[F#m]Their children woke up
And they couldn't f[Bm]ind them
They'd l[C#]eft before the sun came up that d[F#m]ay
They j[F#]ust drove off and left it all behi[Bm]nd 'em
But wh[F#m]ere were they going witho[C#]ut ever
Knowing the [F#m]way? E
Chorus
[-----]
[E]Anyone can see the [A]road that they walk on
Is p[E]aved with gold
[F#m]It's always summer
They'll n[C#]ever get cold
They'll [D]never get hungry
They'll [A]never get old and g[E]rey
You can see their [A]shadows wandering o[E]ff somewhere
They w[F#m]on't make it home
But they re[C#]ally don't care
They [D]wanted the highway
They're [A]happier there to[E]day[C#]
