Chords for Larry Cordle - Highway 40 Blues

It's a never leave here with your ears hurt.
No matter what you heard, really.
[F#]
It's a pretty pleasant place to hang.
_ Uh, this song.
Thank you, Sean.
This song here, I'm going to
_ _ You know, I got the town
on the back of this song
right here, [E] and it _
I [F#] guess it's a good thing.
I've almost outlived the copyright.
I'm going to own it again after all.
_ Long live the living of some of it.
This time I've owned it in a very long time.
I've been living it.
_ _ Of course, now as I was saying a while ago,
I was only living when I
had a hit on this, you know.
_ Well, notice the color.
I did.
[D#] _ _ Yeah.
We didn't know that shortly.
[E] _ _ [F#] It goes like this right here.
I want this.
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ It's a highway in [F#m] Portland. _
_ _ [B] I walk on
the [E] line of shit.
_ _ _ And
the days are [F#m] getting long.
_ _ [B] The sea [E] lies home.
[F#] _ _ When time
[A] lets it loose,
[B] _ I'm going to [E] desert you.
_ _ [C#m] _ When the end I [F#m] get
[F#] to, all I want [B] is nothing [E] for you.
[B] _ _ [E] _ I wish I'd gone [F#m] out
and been alone.
_ _ [B] _ It's all in my head
[E] to thank God.
_ _ _ Thank the Lord
for [F#m] the life I get.
_ _ _ [C#] One day I'm going to
light the city.
[F#] _ _ _ _ Turning [A] my sun up.
[B] _ I'm going to set [E] my
house [C#m] on fire.
I'm going [F#] _ _
to
make [B] a long trip
to the highway [E] in Portland.

_ _ You know I'm around
all [F#m] over now.
_ _ [B] But I'm a woman's
own [E] town to town.
_ _ All them pretty girls
I [F#m] have to say.
_ _ [B] But just one thing
they [E] need to say.
_ I play music
[A] on the bars.
_ [B] And I play music
on the [E] bars.
[B] _ _ [C#m] I sing them simple [F#] things.
It's the last song [B] he'll sing
I don't think [E] I'll ever know.
