Crash on the Highway - Hurray for the Riff Raff (Capo: 5th fret)
G
There's a crash on the highway today.
GD
Nobody's going anywhere they say.
GEm
It could be you up there, so you better say your prayers,
GDG
and take it easy on your narrow way.
G
Now we can't make it to our gig on time,
GD
so we pull over and drink some wine.
GEm
They got a five-car pile up in Rosenheim,
GDG
oh, driver take me down the line.
C
Germany has been cold and mean.
G
I want to get home to New Orleans.
C
Me and my baby, all we do is fight.
DD7
Take me back home to BJ's on a Monday night.
G
They got these two-dollar coins here, man.
GD
Some people say this is the promised land.
GEm
But me, I'm happy in some southern bar,
GDG
just in the corner playin' my guitar.
G
There's a crash on the highway today.
GD
Nobody's going anywhere they say.
GEm
Man, it could be you up there, so you better say your prayers,
GDG
and take it easy on your narrow way.
C
All dressed up with nowhere to go,
G
feeling like the last stand at the Alamo.
C
Man, I ain't got nothin' but time,
DD7
and I got Louisiana on my mind.
G
Oh, There's a crash on the highway today.
GD
Nobody's going anywhere they say.
GEm
Well, it could be you up there, so you better say your prayers,
GDG
and take it easy on your narrow way.
GDG
Take it easy on your narrow way.
