Lyrics
Highway EmA G EmA G EmA G EmA G DAGB7 You can pray for deliverance You can pray for your soul You can pray for forgiveness You can pray for us all But I'm gonna do things my way Gonna hit the highway You can run for the forest You can run to the hills You can run from the devil You'll be running still But I'm gonna do things my way Gonna hit the highway GGDD GGAB7 We all have to pay our fare We all got to carry that load Who has a life without a care? Just give me that open road You can hide in confusion You can hide in despair You can hide in religion You can hide anywhere But I'm gonna do things my way Gonna hit the highway
