Am                     Am/G   AmMan walkin‘ long the railroad tracks
C                                 GGoin‘ some place there’s no going back

Highway patrol choppers comin‘ up over the ridge
    Am                  Am/G      AmHot soup on a campfire under the bridge
                        Am/G      AmShelter line stretchin‘ round the corner
C                        GWelcome to the new world order

Families sleepin‘ in their cars in the Southwest
Am                Am/G     AmNo home no job no peace no rest

FThe highway is alive tonight
             C                    C/B      AmBut nobody’s kiddin‘ nobody about where it goes
GI’m sittin‘ down here in the campfire light
Am                Am/G         AmSearchin‘ for the ghost of Tom Joad

He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
Preacher lights up a butt and talks a drag
Waitin‘ for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
In a cardboard book neath the underpass
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
You got hole in your belly and a gun in your hand
Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
Bathin‘ in the city aquaeduct

The highway is alive tonight
Where it’s headed everybody knows
I’m sittin‘ down here in the campfire light
Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joad

Harmonica Break : F  C  C/B  Am  G  Am

Now Tom said: "Mom, wherever there’s cop beatin‘ a guy
Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
Where there’s a fight gainst blood and hatred in the air
Look for me Mom I’ll be there
Wherever there’s somebody fightin‘ for a place to stand
Or decent job or helping hand
Wherever somebody’s strugglin‘ to be free
Look in their eyes Mom you’ll see me"

Well the highway is alive tonight
But nobody’s kiddin‘ nobody about where it goes
I’m sittin‘ down here in the campfire light
With the ghost of old Tom Joad

Outro: F C C/B Am G Am x2
