[Verse 1]
Cadd9       G      Em   D
 We all got troubles
Cadd9       G    Em   D
 We all got pain
      Cadd9       G   Em   D
Yeah, everybody's got
          Cadd9         G      Em
Their own versions of cocaine
   D

Cadd9      G              Em    
  Nobody's perfect like a  thorn
      D
 on a rose
           Cadd9          G       
I've got a closet full of 
  Em            D
skeletons underneath my clothes
Cadd9     G       Em        
 Long overdue for confessing my 
       D
confession
        Am        G        
I'm the hypocrite poster boy 
     Em           D
perfecting imperfection

[Chorus]
          Cadd9            G      
Take your heart out on the highway
       Em               D
 (Your heart out on the highway)
         Cadd9         G          
When you hit the road again (When 
    Em            D
you hit the road again)
              Cadd9         
You're always treating every 
 G                Em          
stranger (Always treating every 
   D
stranger)
         Cadd9            G    
That you meet like an old friend

(That you meet like an old friend)

[Verse 2]
          Cadd9          G      
Your life doesn't have a rewind
Em   D

         Cadd9          G    Em   D
So don't live it with regret
        Cadd9        G   Em   D
And you better watch out
          Cadd9          G     Em
Where you flick your cigarette
   D

    Cadd9             G       Em 
So, don't be starting fires 
                 D
unless you're getting cold
       Cadd9            G          
Mix it up with wine and music and a
Em              D
   loved one to hold
Cadd9          G                 
 I don't throw stones, don't want
    Em               D
 no one throwing 'em back
   Am                G            
So save yourself the trouble and 
  Em                 D
go cut the world some slack

[Chorus]
              Cadd9           
You take your heart out on the 
 G             Em            
highway (Your heart out on the 
   D
highway)
         Cadd9         G          
When you hit the road again (When 
    Em            D
you hit the road again)
              Cadd9         
You're always treating every 
 G                Em          
stranger (Always treating every 
   D
stranger)
         Cadd9            G    
That you meet like an old friend 
            Em
(That you meet like an old friend)

Their own versions of cocaine
Cadd9         G                   
 Left wing or right wing it takes 
Em               D
  both wings for flight
          Cadd9             G     
Can't you hear the children 
          Em                D
singing red and yellow, black and 
white
Cadd9         G            
 So stop your fighting, start 
     Em           D
uniting, sing along
  Am            G              Em
I think we all agree we love a
