Jellico Highway Lyrics & Tabs by The Refugees
Jellico Highway
guitar chords lyrics
Somewhere in eastern Kentucky
With a whole lot of time left to kill
I decided to get off the Interstate
And drive on up into the hills
As I crossed the Tennessee border
With my thoughts scattered over the road
I’ve been trying like hell to forget you
But leaving you left me so cold
Somewhere on the Jellico Highway
It hit me so hard I could cry
I told you I didn’t love you
God knows I was tellin’ a lie
Somewhere on the Jellico Highway
I realized that I said good-bye
If I know you as well as I think I do
Somewhere on the Jellico Highway
I realized that I said good-bye
If I know you as well as I think I do
You’re already moving on
You said if I ever left you
You wouldn’t linger in the loss too long
And I’m out here driving to nowhere
With my tears and a full tank of gas
Cursing myself for failing you
And the fact that I acted so fast
Somewhere in eastern Kentucky
With a whole lot of time left to kill
I decided to get off the Interstate
And drive on up into the hills
