1. I'm travelin' the highway to nowhere

                    A                                        E

    'cause I can't find the road to your heart.

                    A                                   D

    This old road is so rough and so rocky,

             A                E                         A

    I get lost on the highway to your heart.

              E                                         A

    This highway to nowhere keeps callin',

               D                                  A

    your heart's at the end of the line,

             A                                D

    but I always get lost on a detour,

         A                  E                       A

    I guess I don't understand the signs.

3. I've travelled this highway so long now

                 A                                       E

    but I know I'm no closer to your heart.

                      A                                            D

    Down this long lonesome road I'll keep travelin'

                      A                   E                     A

    though I know I've been lost from the start.

              E                                  A

    This highway to nowhere I'll follow,

             D                                            A

    the road's dark but I keep trudgin' on,

                  A                                        D

    and tomorrow I'll be back where I started,

                 A                E                        A

    it's the highway to nowhere that I'm on.
