Lost Highway chords by David Allan Coe
Verse 1
D
C
G
D
G
You know, I don't know why,
D
but most people think of
Hank
Williams when you mention
G
David
Allen
D
Coe's name, and maybe it's because
C
G
the ride was such a hit for me.
D
But I was so disappointed when they did a
C
TV special on
Hank
G
Williams this year and
they asked
D
John
G
Anderson to sing the ride instead of me,
D
it broke my heart.
And I was telling
A
G
Mo about that at
King
Records.
A
They had just released
D
my latest album,
G
Lonesome
D
Fugitive, and he said, well, why don't we
go in the studio and cut
G
a tribute album to
A
D
A
Hank, an d call it
The
D
Ghost of
Hank
Williams
G
after the song you wrote at
Hank's grave.
D
C
And I said, man, that'd be great.
And
G
D
Mo said, well, what's your favorite
Hank
G
Williams songs?
D
I picked up the guitar,
A
G
started playing it, and I went...
D
C
G
D
C
I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost
G
D
C
G
D
A
A life of sin, I have paid the cost
G
D
G
When I pass by, all the people say
D
C
G
D
Just another guy on
C
G
the lost highway
D
C
D
Just a deck of cards
C
G
D
and a jug of wine
C
G
D
And a woman's lies
G
A
makes a life like mine
G
D
On the day we met, I went astray
G
D
C
G
I started down that lost highway
D
C
D
C
G
D
C
G
D
C
G
D
C
D
I was just a lad,
C
G
D
merely twenty -two
C
G
D
Neither good nor bad,
C
G
A
just a kid like you
G
D
And now I'm lost, too late to pray
C
G
D
Lord, I paid the cost,
C
G
D
on the lost highway
C
D
Now boys don't stop,
C
G
you're running around
D
G
D
On the road of sin,
C
G
A
oh you're sorrow bound
G
D
Take my advice, you'll curse the day
C
G
D
You started traveling down
G
D
G
That lost highway, that lost highway
D
G
D
That lost highway,
C
G
D
G
D
C
G
that old lost highway
You
Lost Highway
