[Intro]
D   C   G   Asus4   A
 
 
[Verse 1]
D              A            F#7             Bm    A
Pickin' up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream
  G              D               Asus4    A
I wonder how the old folks are tonight
    D              A                 F#7          Bm
Her name was Ann & I'll be damned if I recall her face
G               A               D
She left me not knowin' what to do
 
 
[Chorus]
D        C      G       A            D
Carefree Highway let me slip away on you
         C      G            A
Carefree highway you've seen better days
    Bm            A             G         D/F#  Esus4   E
The morning after blues from my head down to my shoes
D        C       G      Asus4     A             D  C  G  A  D  C  G Asus A
Carefree Highway let me slip away  slip away on you
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                A            F#7          Bm    A
Turnin' back the pages to the times I love best
  G                D           Asus4    A
I wonder if she'll ever do the same
        D                 A              F#7        Bm
Now the thing that I call living is just being satisfied
G                  A              D
With knowin' I got no one left to blame
 
 
[Chorus]
D        C         G      A              D
Carefree Highway I got to see you my old flame
         C      G            A
Carefree highway you've seen better days
    Bm            A             G         D/F#  Esus4   E
The morning after blues from my head down to my shoes
D        C       G      Asus4     A             D  C  G  A  D  C  G Asus A
Carefree Highway let me slip away  slip away on you
 
 
[Verse 3]
D                  A               F#7             Bm
Searchin' thru the fragments of my dream shattered sleep
  G             D                     Asus4    A
I wonder if the years have closed her mind
       D                A              F#7           Bm
Well I guess it must be wanderlust, or trying to get free
G                          A               D
From the good old faithful feelin' we once knew
 
 
[Chorus]
D        C      G       A            D
Carefree Highway let me slip away on you
         C      G            A
Carefree highway you've seen better days
    Bm           A              G         D/F#    Esus4   E
The morning after blues from my head down  to  my shoes
D        C       G      Asus4     A             D   C
Carefree Highway let me slip away  slip away on you
G      A            D
Let me slip away on you
 
D        C         G      A              D
Carefree Highway I got to see you my old flame
         C      G            A
Carefree highway you've seen better days
    Bm            A             G         D/F#  Esus4   E
The morning after blues from my head down to my shoes
D        C       G      Asus4     A             D
Carefree Highway let me slip away  slip away on you
