  			E 
I'm a rolling stone 
    A         E 
All alone and lost 
                                B7 
For a life of sin I've paid the cost 
            A                 E 
When I pass by all the people say 
                        B7   E 
Just another guy on the Lost Highway 
E                          A      E 
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine 
                                    B7 
And a woman's love make a life like mine 
              A           E          
On the day we met I went astray 
                            B7   E 
I started rolling down that Lost Highway 
 
SOLO 
 
E                       A      E 
I was just a lad nearly twenty two 
                                    B7 
Neither good or bad just a kid like you 
             A               E 
And now I'm  lost to late to pray 
                           B7       E 
But I paid the cost on the Lost Highway 
               F#           B       F# 
Now boys don't start  your rambling round 
 
On this road of sin 
               C#7 
Are you sorrow bound 
        B                          F#  
Take my advice or you'll curse the day 
                              C#7  F# 
You started rolling down that Lost Highway 
        B                          F#  
Take my advice or you'll curse the day 
                              C#7  F# 
You started rolling down that Lost Highway
