Highway Lyrics

(I decided to do the chords to this song,
as the ones I've come across on this,
and other websites haven't been quite so accurate
with missing chords, etc. Please rate if you like,
or don't for that matter - hoping to do a proper
TAB of this song in due time
to go over the background picking, open to
any suggestions or corrections)
Tired old man you're wasting slowly battling grey and blue
Built your empire as a shell so nobody prays on you
Remember when you were fresh and bitter like a blossom in its bud
Struggle to keep the memories free from the sweat and blood
Just to generalize you sleep and you rise you fail to recognize
Like the Red Queen, you're running out of steam every mile
The highway of denial
Interlude (chord sequence in first 2 lines)
What a funny way to spend the day like a farmer deep in debt
Tending to the coming harvest, ever trying to forget
Don't you feel like you wanna run away from the mess that you've begun
Now that they won't let you make it up as you go along
Just to generalize you sleep and you rise you fail to recognize
Like the Red Queen you're running out of steam every mile
The highway of denial
Interlude (chord sequence in first 2 lines)
Tired old man you're wasting slowly battling grey and blue
Built your empire as a shell so nobody prays on you
