D               A           F#              Bm      A  
Pickin' up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream,  
  G              D             Asus4     A  
I wonder how the old folks are tonight.  
    D                A                 F#           Bm  
Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face,  
    G                A               D  
She left me here not knowin' what to do.

Carefree Highway, let me slip away on you.  
         C       G         A  
Carefree Highway, you seen better days.  
    Bm            A             G               Esus4   E   D  
The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes.  
         C       G       Asus4     A             D     A  
Carefree Highway, let me slip away, slip away on you.  
  
  
D                A            F#               Bm     A  
Turnin' back the pages to the times I love the best,  
  G                D           Asus4    A  
I wonder if she'll ever do the same.  
        D                 A              F#         Bm  
Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied,  
     G             A              D  
With knowin' I got no one else to blame.

Searchin' through the fragments of my dream shattered sleep,  
  G             D                     Asus4    A  
I wonder if the years have closed her mind.  
        D                A              F#            Bm  
Well, I guess it must be wander-lust or tryin' to get free,  
         G                 A               D  
From the good old faithful feelin' we once knew.
