Highway Queen Chords - Nikki Lane

VERSE 1

G F/C C Well, I heard tell of a woman out there with tight blue jeans and long black hair G F/C D She’ll come to play but she won’t stay and it always brings them down G F/C C Some folks say there’ll come a day when she’ll settle in some old town G F/C D But it’s best you know it’s a long long road and she ain’t gonna come around

CHORUS

G F/C C 60,000 miles of blacktop, countless broken hearts between G F/C C Winding lines are wide but don’t stop, living the life of the highway queen G F/C C She’s a siren, leaves you pining, haunts your mind like a melody G F/C C F/C D G You can tie her down, you can bottle lightning but the highway queen don’t need no king

VERSE 2

G F/C C Well, one or two, they might’ve broken through, they might’ve nearly roped her in G F/C D But a fire like that is far too wild, it’s gonna burn and burn again G F/C C Well, seasons fade, so does the pain, it blows away like a tumbleweed G F/C D You can’t blame the girl for loving this whole world, she can’t help it, she’s a highway queen

CHORUS

BRIDGE

G F/C C Well, miles and miles, she keeps on rolling G F/C C Place your bets if you ain’t foldin’ G F/C C Miles and miles, no sign of slowing G F/C D It ain’t who she loves, it’s who she’s holding

CHORUS
