Tom Petty - This Old Town - Highway Companion
INTRO: G Em F Em G Em F Em A
G C F Em
Living free is gaining on me
G C F
Can't keep ahead of my dreams
G C F Em
My relief turned out a thief
G C F
Smooth as rocks in the stream
G Em
This old town is a sad affair
F Em
You be glad you're not there
G
It ties your hands
Em
It spikes your drink
F Em A
I'd say more, but I can't think
G C F Em
Lazy Jim took a bottle with him
G C F
Tried to flag down a train
G C
Left a note
F Em
Couldn't read what he wrote
G C F
A light came on in my brain
G Em
This old town is a sad affair
F Em
You be glad you're not there
G
It ties your hands
Em
It spikes your drink
F Em A
I'd say more, but I can't think
D G
The hills are gold
C F
Mornings are cold
D G C F
Don't know a soul on the street
D G C F
I keep to myself like everyone else
D G C F
Nobody says much to me
G Em F Em G Em F Em A
G C F Em
Go to bed, fight thoughts in my head
G C F
In the time between wake and sleep
G C F Em
Rats to kill, contracts to fill
G C F
It's on ice, but it won't keep
G Em
This old town is a sad affair
F Em
You be glad you're not there
G
It ties your hands
Em
It spikes your drink
F Em A
I'd say more, but I can't think
G Em
This old town is a sad affair
F Em
You be glad you're not there
G
It ties your hands
Em
It spikes your drink
F Em A
I'd say more, but I can't think
G Em F Em G Em F Em A
