[ Intro: Verse]
Em /
They made up their minds
Am /
And they started packing
B7 / Em /
They left before the sun came up that day
E7 / Am /
An exit to eternal summer slacking
Em B7 Em /
But where were they going without ever knowing the way?
Em /
They drank up the wine
Am /
And they got to talking
B7 / Em /
They now had more important things to say
E7 / Am /
And when the car broke down they started walking
Em B7 Em D
Where were they going without ever knowing the way?
G
Anyone can see the road that they walk on
D
Is paved with gold
Em
It's always summer
B7
They'll never get cold
C
They'll never get hungry
G D /
They'll never get old and grey
G D
You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
Em
They won't make it home
B7
But they really don't care
C
They wanted the highway
G D / B7 /
They're happier there to- day to-day
Em /
Their children woke up
Am /
And they couldn't find them
B7 / Em /
They left before the sun came up that day
E7 / Am /
They just drove off and left it all behind'em
Em B7 Em D
But where were they going without ever knowing the way?
