E                  B                  C#m
Like the pine trees linin' the windin' road
C#m7             A            B     E
I've got a name, I've got a name
E                B                    C#m
Like the singin' bird and the croakin' toad
           F#7               B
I've got a name, I've got a name
Abm            A               E
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
Abm                C#m   F#m7            B
But I'm livin' the dream that he kept hid
Abm                A
Movin' me down the highway
Abm                C#m
Rollin' me down the highway
A               B                  E
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by

E                  B                  C#m
Like the north wind whistlin' down the sky
C#m7             A            B     E
I've got a song, I've got a song
E                B                    C#m
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry
           F#7               B
I've got a song, I've got a song
Abm            A               E
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
Abm                C#m   F#m7            B
If it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud
Abm                A
Movin' me down the highway
Abm                C#m
Rollin' me down the highway
A               B                  E
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by

E
And I'm gonna go there free
E                B                  C#m
Like the fool I am and I'll always be
C#m7             A            B     E
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
E                      B                         C#m
They can change their minds but they can't change me
           F#7               B
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
Abm            A               E
Oh, I know I could share it if you want me to
Abm                C#m   F#m7            B
If you're going my way, I'll go with you
Abm                A
Movin' me down the highway
Abm                C#m
Rollin' me down the highway
A               B                  E
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by
