Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][G][A]
[D][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
Well, [D]my
time went so quickly
I went [F#m]lickety-splickly
Out [G]Out to my [Asus4]old '55[D]
As I pulled away slowly, [F#m]feeling so holy
God [G]knows,
I was feeling alive
[A]

[Verse 2]
[Asus4]
Now the [D]sun's [F#m]coming [G]up[A]
I'm [D]riding with [F#m]Lady L[G]uck[A]
[D]Freeway [F#m]cars and t[G]rucks[A]
Stars be[Asus4]ginning to f[D]ade
[Dsus4][D][A]
And I lead the [D]parade[A]
Just a-wishing I'd I'd
[Bm]stayed a little [E]longer
Oh, Lord, lemme tell you that the feel
[Asus4]ing's getting stronger
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Asus4]
[A]And at [D]six in the morning,
[F#m]gave me no warning
I [G]had to [A]be on my [D]way
Well there's trucks all a-passing and
and and [F#m]the lights all a-flashing
I'm I'm [G]on my way home
from your place
[Asus4][A]

[Verse 4]
And now the [D]sun's [F#m]coming [G]up[A]
I'm [D]riding with [F#m]Lady Luck
[G][Asus4][A]
[D]Freeway [F#m]cars and t[G]rucks
[A]Sta[Asus4]rs beginning to fade[D][A]
And I lead the [D]parade[Dsus4][D][A]
Just a-wishing I'd I'd
[Bm]stayed a little [E]longer
Oh, Lord, lemme tell [Asus4]you the feeling's
getting [A]stronger[Asus4]
[D]

[Verse 5]
[A]
And my [D]time went so quickly
I went [F#m]lickety-splickly
Out [G]Out to my [Asus4]old '55[D]
As I pulled away slowly, [F#m]feeling so holy
God [G]knows,
I was feeling alive
[Asus4][A]

[Verse 6]
And now the [D]sun's [F#m]coming [G]up[A]
I'm [D]riding with [F#m]Lady L[G]uck[A]
[D]Freeway [F#m]cars and t[G]rucks[A]
[D]Freeway [F#m]cars and t[G]rucks[A]
[D]Freeway [F#m]cars and trucks[G]

[Outro 1]
