CAPO 1
[A5] [A]
Every [D] road
Has a [G] story to [D] tell
Of [G] dreams that have [D] soared
And [G] dreams that [A] fell

That says [G] out of con[D]trol
[G] Prospecting [D] riches
That re[A]side in the [D] soul
CHORUS (abbreviated)
Throw this [G] love down the [D] highway
[G] See where it [A] turns
[G] Life is a [D] shell game
Lessons [A] lost, lessons [D] learned
[A]
There will never be a [D] time
Like the [G] time that is [D] now
To [G] reach for the [D] promise
Of [G] melody on the [A] bough
Break up the [D] silence
Make it [G] clear, make it [D] last
[G] Forgiveness [D] given
Break [A] away from the [D] past
CHORUS (full)
Throw this [G] love down the [D] highway
[G] See where it [A] turns
[G] Life is a [D] shell game
Lessons [G] lost, lessons [A] learned

Throw this [G] love down the [D] highway
