This is from memory so the original may be in a different key.
They [am] made up their minds and they started [dm] packing
They [am/E]left before the [E]sun came up that [am]day
An [A7] exit to eternal [dm]slacking
But [am] where were they going with[E]out ever knowing the[am]way? [G]
They [am] drank up the wine and they got to [dm]talking
They [am]now had more im[E]portant things to [am]say
And [A7]when the car broke down they started [dm]walking
But [am] where were they going with[E]out ever knowing the[am]way? [G]
Chorus:
Anyone could see the [C]road that they walk on is [G]paved in gold
And [am]it's always summer, they'll [E]never get cold
They'll [F]never get hungry. They'll [C]never get old and gray.[G]
You can see their [C]shadows wandering [G]off somewhere
They [am]won't get make it home, but they [E]really don't care
They [F]wanted the highway. They're [C]happy there to[G]day, today
{eoc}
The [am]children woke up and they couldn't [dm]find them
They [am/E]left before the [E]sun came up that [am]day
They [A7]just drove off and left it all be[dm]hind them
But [am] where were they going with[E]out ever knowing the[am]way? [G]
Chorus 2 x's
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official FASTBALL tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
