Verse 1
Fastball - The Way
Tabbed in Brazil by Eric Asquini.
Verse
[F#m]They made up their minds
And they started [Bm]packing
They [C#7]left before the sun came up that day[F#m]
An exit[F#7] to eternal summer slacking[Bm]
[F#m]But where were they going [C#7]without ever
Knowing the way?[F#m]
[F#m]They drank up the wine
And they got to [Bm]talking
[C#7]They now had more important things to [F#m]say
[F#7]When the car broke down they started [Bm]walking
[F#m]Where were they going [C#7]without even
Knowing the [F#m]way?[E]
Chorus
Anyone can see the [A]road that they walk on
Is paved [E]with gold
[F#m]It's always summer
They'll never [C#7]get cold
They'll never [D]get hungry
They'll never [A]get old and [E]grey
You can see their [A]shadows wandering off [E]somewhere
They [F#m]won't make it home
But they [C#7]really don't care
They [D]wanted the highway
They're [A]happier there [E]today[C#7]
Verse
[F#m]Their children woke up
And they couldn't [Bm]find them
They [C#7]left before the sun came up [F#m]that day
They [F#7]just drove off and left it all [Bm]behind'em
[F#m]But where were they going [C#7]without ever
Knowing the [F#m]way?[E]
Chorus
Anyone can see the [A]road that they walk on
Is paved [E]with gold
[F#m]It's always summer
They'll never [C#7]get cold
They'll never [D]get hungry
They'll never [A]get old and [E]grey
You can see their [A]shadows wandering off [E]somewhere
They [F#m]won't make it home
But they [C#7]really don't care
They [D]wanted the highway
They're [A]happier there [E]today[C#7]
