Start Jamming...
[C#] [F#] [G#] [C#]
This old highway seems so lonesome when [Fm] you're going where you've been
[F#] And a lonesome song can make you cry [G#] time and time again
If I [C#] had listened to a friend of mine [A#m] ten years ago today
I'd [F#] have a better job than what I got [G#] today
But [C#] the billboards on the highways and [Fm] the brake lights on the cars
Make me [F#] jump out on the highway with my [G#] bag and my guitar
If she [C#] comes or if she goes it doesn't [A#m] matter anymore
[F#] Cause I'm riding [G#] my thumb to [C#] Mexico
Riding [F#] [G#] my thumb to [C#] Mexico
[Cm]
[A#m] [G#] [F#] It don't matter [G#] when or how [C#] I go
[F#] I'll ride [G#] this thumb till [C#] I see her [A#m] [G#] again
So [F#] I'm riding [G#] my thumb to [C#] Mexico
Well [F#] [G#] [C#]
the reason why she left me is not [Fm] the reason that I'm here
I'm [F#] a traveling kind of man just need [G#] a change of atmosphere
If [C#] there's any place I haven't been [A#m] at all that's where I'll go
So [F#] I'm riding [G#] my thumb to [C#] Mexico
Riding [F#] [G#] my thumb to [C#] Mexico
[Cm]
[A#m] [F#] It don't [G#] matter when or how [C#] I go
[F#] I'll ride [G#] this thumb till [C#] I [Fm] see [A#m] her again
So [F#] I'm riding [G#] my thumb to [C#] Mexico
[F#] [G#] [C#]
