The solo at the end is slightly different. Its all based on petonics so 
if you play this one twice instead, it will still sound great. 
 
Effect: 
 
I'm not sure this is even a guitar, it sounds like maybe it is with some 
 
crazy studio effects or pedals. It sounds good if you just make some 
feedback 
instead. Just let this ring after the chorus near the end before the 
last solo.

Lyrics: 
 
they made up their minds 
and they started packing 
they left before the sun came up that day 
 
an exit to eternal summers lacking 
but where were they going without ever knowing the way 
 
(guitar enters) 
 
they drank up the wine 
and they got to talking 
but there were more important things to say 
 
and when the car broke down 
they started walking 
where were they going without  ever knowing the way 
 
anyone can see the road that they walk on is paved in gold 
its always summer they'll never get cold 
never get hungry 
never get old and gray 
you can see the shadows wandering off somewhere 
won't make it home but the really don't care 
they wanted the highway they're happier there, today, today. 
 
the children woke up and they couldn't find them 
they left before the sun came up that day 
they just drove off and left it all behind them 
                                          (left if all behind) 
 
but where were they going without ever knowing the way. 
 
anyone can see the road that they walk on is paved in gold 
its always summer they'll never get cold 
never get hungry 
never get old and gray 
you can see the shadows wandering off somewhere 
won't make it home but the really don't care 
they wanted the highway they're happier there, today, today.
