Clovis Highway
View chords used in this chart
G
It?s a hundred degrees and I?m digging this ditch
C
That sun?s beating down like a Son of a Bitch
D G
And my shadow is the only shade in sight
I could have been a doctor, a lawyer, or an engineer
But I chose instead to make a career
Out of blaming other people for the problems in my life
[Refrão] C G
Give me my freedom, take back your money
D G
Don?t you listen to that old wind blow
C G
There?s a storm cloud rolling down that Clovis Highway
D
It?s heading my way
Em
And I just might go
Well, it?s hard to look up when you?re always staring down
At your foot on a shovel dividing the ground
And all your dreams just fade into a wish
You know I?d like to straighten up, get my life on track
Start moving ahead, but it?s a well-known fact
That you?re always going backwards when you?re digging a ditch
(Chorus)
