Cifra Eric Clapton Key To The Highway tab

Tom: A

              

I got the [A] key to the [E] highway,

[D] Billed out and bound to go.

I'm gonna [A] leave here running

[E] Walking's much too [A] slow.  [D] [A] [E]

I'm going [A] back to the [E] border

[D] Woman, where I'm better known.

You know you [A] haven't done nothing,

[E] Drove a good man away from [A] home. [D] [A] [E]

When the [A] moon peeks over the [E] mountains

[D] I'll be on my way.

I'm gonna [A] roam this old highway

[E] Until the break of [A] day. [D] [A] [E]

Oh give me [A] one, one more kiss [E] mama

[D] Just before I go,

I'm gonna [A] leave this town, baby

[E] I won't be back no [A] more. [D] [A] [E]

I got the [A] key to the [E] highway,

[D] Billed out and bound to go.

I'm gonna [A] leave here running

[E] Walking's much too [A] slow. [D] [A] [E]

"thank you!"
