Ghosts Of Highway 20 by Lucinda Williams
Ghosts Of Highway 20
Tuning: E A D G B E
INTRO:
Dm Dm
CHORUS:
Dm
I know this road like the back of my hand
Bb Dm
Same with the stations, on the FM band
Bb Dm
Farms and truck stops, firework stands
Am Dm
I know this road like the back of my hand
VERSE:
Dm
Southern secrets still buried deep
Bb Dm
Brooding and restless 'neath the cracked concrete
Bb Dm
If you were from here, you would defend me
Am Dm
To the death along with the ghosts of highway 20
VERSE:
Dm
I went through hell when I was younger
Bb Dm
Deep in the well you'll see the hunger
Bb Dm
To find the strength I got within me
Am Dm
To wrestle with the ghosts of highway 20
Dm
Been sixty years, I don't want for nothing
Bb Dm
But my tears, they keep on coming
Bb Dm
And my fears continue to haunt me
Am Dm
Along with the ghosts on highway 20
CHORUS:
Dm
I know this road like the back of my hand
Bb Am
Same with the stations, on the FM band
Dm Dm
Farms and truck stops, and firework stands
Am Dm
I know this road like the back of my hand
Dm Dm Bb Dm Bb Dm Dm Am Dm Dm Dm
VERSE:
Dm
Who I am now to who I was then
Bb Dm
I knew somehow I'd come back again
Bb Dm
No doubt about it, I'm next of kin
Am Dm
To all all the ghosts along highway 20
Dm
Run down motels, the fading billboards
Bb Dm
Used cars for sale, the rusty junkyards
Bb Dm
This two lane blacktop will never let me
Am Dm
Let go of the ghosts along highway 20
Dm
And I have seen the signs that say
Bb Dm
We're closing in on the final days
Bb Dm
But I got nothing to repent
Am Dm
My saving grace is with the ghosts on highway 20
CHORUS:
Bb Dm
I know this road like the back of my hand
Bb Am
Same with the stations, on the FM band
Dm Dm
Farms and truck stops, and firework stands
Am Dm Dm
Yeah, I know this road like the back of my hand
VERSE:
Dm
Every question and every breath
Bb Dm
Every exit leaves a little death
Bb Dm
In its wake a memory
Am Dm
That will wander with the ghosts of highway 20
CHORUS:
Bb Dm
Yeah, I know this road like the back of my hand
Bb Am
Same with the stations, on the FM band
Dm
Farms and truck stops and firework stands
Am Dm DM
I know this road like the back of my hand
VERSE:
Dm
And I have seen the signs that say
Bb Dm
We're closing in the final days
Bb Dm
But I got nothing left to repent
Am Dm
My saving grace is with the ghosts on highway 20
Am Dm
Yeah, my saving grace is with the ghosts on highway 20
Am Dm Dm
Yeah, my saving grace is with the ghosts on highway 20
