CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C F C G F C
F
Behind the stairs and the Coke machine
CG
Down in the corner, sight unseen
FC
In the cheap motel
F
Its concrete walls, concrete walks
CG
Concrete halls and concrete blocks
FC
In the cheap motel
F
The girl at the desk, she's learning guitar
CG
Watching the faces, counting the cars
FC
In the cheap motel
F
Works by herself, likes it alone
CG
Eyes looking through you, harder than stone
FC
In the cheap motel
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C G F C (2x)
CHORUS:
FC
That highway sings, that highway moans
FG
All the lonely hearts on the highway home
CF
The ice machine, she's broken down
CG
And we're stuck out here on the edge of town
FC
In the cheap motel
F
It's checkout time and they're on their way
CG
And we're still here for another day
FC
In the cheap motel
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C G F C (2x)
CHORUS:
FC
That highway sings, that highway moans
FG
All the lonely hearts on the highway home
CF
The Chicano maid, she's feeling good
CG
Got a sister that works in Hollywood
FC
Not the cheap motel
F
The window's barred and the doors are locked
CG
Time stands still on a broken clock
FC
In the cheap motel
