Capo II *
Pickin up the
pieces of my s
#
weet shattered
dream,
I wonder how t
he old folks a
re tonight?
Her name was A
nn, and I'll b
e damned if I
recall her fac
e;
She left me no
t knowing what
to do.
Carefree highw
ay, let me sl
ip away on you
Carefree highw
ay, you've se
en better days
The morning af
ter blues, fro
m my head down
to my shoes
Carefree high
way, let me s
lip away, slip
away on you
Turning back t
he pages to th
e times I love
best
I wonder if sh
e'll ever do t
he same?
Now the thing
that I call li
ving is just b
#
eing satisfied
,
With knowing I
got no one le
ft to blame
Carefree highw
ay, let me sl
ip away on you
Carefree highw
ay, you've se
en better days
The morning af
ter blues, fro
m my head down
to my shoes
Carefree high
way, let me s
lip away, slip
away on you
Searching thru
the fragments
of my dream s
hattered sleep
;
I wonder if th
e years have c
losed her mind
?
Well I guess i
t must be wand
er lust or try
ing to get fre
e,
From the good
old faithful f
eeling we once
knew
Carefree highw
ay, let me sl
ip away on you
Carefree highw
ay, you've se
en better days
The morning af
ter blues, fro
m my head down
to my shoes
Carefree high
way, let me s
lip away, slip
away on you
Let me slip aw
ay on you
Carefree highw
ay I got to
see you my old
flame
Carefree highw
ay, you've se
en better days
The morning af
ter blues, fro
m my head down
to my shoes
Carefree high
way, let me s
lip away, slip
away on you
