[Strophe]
G               C                       D 
Down every road there's always one more city 
    C               D             G 
I'm on the run, the highway is my home 
G                 C               D 
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days 
      C            D                    G 
While mama used to pray my crops would fail 
G                C                  D 
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways: 
   C              D                G 
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail
[Refrain]
G                  C                   D 
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me 
  C                          D 
A fugitive must be a rolling stone 
     G                  C               D 
Down every road there's always one more city 
    C               D             G 
I'm on the run, the highway is my home
[Strophe]
G                C                D 
I'm lonely but i can't afford the luxury 
C               D            G 
Of having one i love to come along 
G                  C                     D 
She'd only slow me down and they'd catch up with me 
    C              D            G 
For he who travels fastest goes alone
[Refrain]
G                  C                   D 
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me 
  C                          D 
A fugitive must be a rolling stone 
G                       C               D 
Down every road there's always one more city 
    C               D             G 
I'm on the run, the highway is my home 
    C               D             G 
I'm on the run, the highway is my home
