[Verse]
F#                
One two three four
        F#                  
Well my time went so quickly
       A#m            A#m7 B         C#sus4 F#        B F#
I went licketysplitly ■    out to my ol'    fiftyfive ■ ■ 
                        A#m        A#m7
As I pulled away slowly feeling so holy


[Chorus]
B                       C#7  
God knows I was feeling alive
        F#    A#m    B  C#sus4
Now the sun's coming up ■     
    F#          A#m  B    C#7
I'm riding with Lady Luck ■  
F#      A#m      B     
Freeway cars and trucks
C#7                    F#  
■   Stars beginning to fade
C#7                F#    
■   And I lead the parade


[Verse]
C# C#sus4            D#m7                   G#
■  Just awishin' I'd stayed a little longer ■ 
                                C#      C#sus4          
Oh Lord let me tell ya that the feeling getting stronger
         F#                
And it's six in the morning
A#m7              
Gave me no warning
  B      C#7      F# 
I had to be on my way


[Chorus]
             F#                    
Well there's trucks all apassin' me
        A#m    C#      A#m7    
And the lights all are flashing
B                            C#7  
I'm on my way home from your place
            F#    A#m    B  C#7
And now the sun's coming up ■  
        F#          A#m  B    C#7
And I'm riding with Lady Luck ■  
F#      A#m      B     
Freeway cars and trucks
C#7                    F#   B F#
■   Stars beginning to fade ■ ■ 
C#7                F#    
■   And I lead the parade
C# C#7               D#m      D#m7   G#7   
■  Just awishin' I'd stayed a little longer
                           C#sus4          C#7     
Oh Lord let me tell ya the feeling getting stronger


[Verse]
