[1974] This cover of a Tom Waits ballad is so great.Frey and Henley share
vocals, the piano is great, and the chorus has a wonderful hook to it.
It's really easy to play, so have fun!A friend of mine named James
Wiebeck sent this to me a while back, and I checked it out and put it
up today.Thanks, James!
Well my [C]time went so quickly
I went [Em7]lickety splitly
[F]Out to my [F/G]old fifty-[C]five[G9]
[C]As I pulled away slowly
[Em7]Feelin so Holy
God [F]knows I was [F/G]feelin a[G7]live
And now the [C]sun's [Em7]comin [F]up
I'm [C]ridin' with [Em7]lady lu[F]ck
[C]Freeway [Em7]cars and t[F]rucks
[Dm]Stars be[Em7]ginning to [C]fad[C/B]e[Am]
[Dm]And I [Em7]lead the pa[C]rad[C/B]e[Am]
[Dm]Just a-[G7]wishin' I'd [Am]stayed a little longer
[D]Lord, don't you know the [F]feelin's gettin' [G7]stronger
Six in the morning
Gave me no warning
I had to be on my way
Now the cars are all passin' me
Trucks are all flashin' me
I'm headin' home from your place
I'm ridin' with lady luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade
And I lead the parade
Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
Lord, don't you know the feelin's gettin' stronger
I went lickety splitly
Out to my old fifty-five
As I pulled away slowly
Feelin' so Holy
God knows I was feelin' alive
And now the sun's comin up(yes it is)
I'm ridin' with lady luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Freeway cars and trucks
Ridin' with lady luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Ridin' with lady luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Ridin' with lady luck
Freeway cars and trucks
