D
Never been so lonesome
Em
Never been so blue

It's midnight on the highway

I'm coming back to you
Stuck in Ozona Texas

Out on highway 10

I'm going to Arizona
D
To win you back again

Last time I saw you

Your voice was cold as ice
G
And you spoke of some old lover
D
Like a lonesome paradise

Now I'm standing on the highway

And the only light I see

Never been so blue

It's midnight on the highway
D
I'm coming back for you
