Life Is A Highway by Tom Cochrane
Life Is A Highway
Capo 3
Intro:
Bm A G |
G D/F# D |
G D/F# A | x2
G D/F# A |
G
Life's like a road that you travel on
D
When there's one day here and the next day gone
A
Sometimes you bend and sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your head to the wind
G
There's a world outside every darkened door
D
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
A
Where the brave are free and lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore
Bm
We won't hesitate
A
Break down the garden's gate
G Em
There's not much time left today
Chorus:
Bm A G
Life is a highway
G D/F# D G D/F# A G D/F# A
I wanna ride it all night long
Bm A G
If you're going my way
G D/F# D G D/F# A G D/F# A
I wanna drive it all night long
G
Through all these cities and all these towns
D
It's in my blood and it's all around
A
I love you now like I loved you then
This is the road and these are the hands
G
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
D
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights
A
Knock me down back up again
You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man
Bm
There's no load I can't hold
A
Road so rough this I know
G
I'll be there when the light comes in
Em
Just tell 'em we're survivors
Chorus x2
Em G Bm A
There was a distance between you and I
Em G Bm A
A misunderstanding once, but now we look in the eye
Solo
Bm
There's no load I can't hold
A
Road so rough this I know
G
I'll be there when the light comes in
Em
Just tell 'em we're survivors
N.C.
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long
