I am the highway

Pearls and swine bereft of me.             F, C, G, Am
Long and weary my road has been.
I was lost in the cities, alone in the hills.   F, C - Am, G, C - Am
No sorrow or pity for leaving, I feel, yeah.

I am not your rolling wheels – I am the highway.    C, G, Dm, Am
I am not your carpet ride – I am the sky. 

Friends and liars don't wait for me,   F, C, G, Am
'Cause I'll get on all by myself.
I put millions of miles under my heels;
And still too close to you, I feel, yeah.


I am not your blowing wind – I am the lightning.
I am not your autumn moon – I am the night… the night.            E
