Key to the Highway

          E          B
I got the key to the highway,
E                A
 I feel bound to go.
          E
I'm gonna leave here running;
B                   E
Walking is most too slow.

I'm going down to the border
Woman, where I'm better known.
Well you ain't done nothing but
drive a good man from his home.

Kiss me one, one time more mama
One time before I go,
When I leave this time I
won't be back no more.

I'll Not Be A Stranger

     C                        F
I'll not be a stranger when I get to that city;
      C                        G
I'm acquainted with folks over there.
            C
There'll be friends there to greet me,
            F
There'll be loved ones to meet me
       C             G         C
At the gates of that city four square.
            G
Through the years, through the tears,
        C
They've gone one by one.
            G
But they'll wait at the gate
  C
Until my race is run.
     C                        F
