Time: 3/4

D / / 2 / / 3 / / 4 / / 5 / / 6 / /
I've been a fool, I've been a foo-hoo-ooool
G                            D
Forgivin' you each time that you've done me wrong
A                     G                 C             D
I've been a long time leavin', but I'll be a long time-- gone

I loved you so oh oh oh much, I loved you so mu-u-uuuch
I stayed around when I should've moved along

CHORUS:
A
Hello high life, hello highway
Here come a big old semi my way
G
Stick up my thumb, hear the truck come
D
Trees goin' by, lookin' like a fly
A
On my big legs are my Levi's
G                A7 / / 2 /
 Woo woo woo woo
            D
I've been a fool, I've been a foo-hoo-ooool
G                            D
Forgivin' you each time that you've done me wrong
A                     G                 C             D
I've been a long time leavin', but I'll be a long time-- gone
