G                    D       C       G
I'm driving down the highway of the saints
C                   F         C
Keepin' an eye on a friend of mine
    F      C      G
Who wishes no complaints
     Em                   D
When all her strength had left her
C                  A7
And hope it become thin
        G                C       C/D     G
Now I'm driving down the highway of the saints.

The sun is up and no one's in the field
C                     F     
The temperature keeps risin'
C   F       C         G
The wind is on it's heels
Em                    D
Of all the things she taught me
C               A7
Of none of them restrained
G                C       C/D        G    
Driving down the highway of the saints.

Well, I'm holdin' on to something I can't hold
    F                 Bb   F
The old folks now are leavin'
        Bb      F       C
And the farm is almost sold
      Am                G
There ain't no sense of grievin'
F                 D7
I can't be what I ain't

I'm driving down the highway of the saints.
