G                           C                 G
As I move along the roadway, the los angeles highway,
               Am   C                           G     C    G
I travel all alone, sometimes fast most mostly slow slow slow,
                   Am   C              G
then i think about you, i think about you.

G                           C                    G
I met a girl named Mercedes, she was sweet and beautiful,
          Am  C                         G   C    G
she had a son, she could talk about him on and on,
                     Am   C                  G
I just thought about you, I only thought about you.


G                                        D                  Am      C                    G
Of all the things you said you wanted to do, There was only one time when i wouldn't let you
G                                             D                   Am        Em            C       
Of all the things that you said you wanted to be,  I remember the last thing you promised me,
         Am             C    D    G
You said, I  would have married  you.


When I first left you I was proud and dangerous,
I was alive, I was alive and alone
I never thought about you, I never thought about you.

Well it wasn't much later, I thought i woke up beside you,
And i called out your name, but you were two thousand miles away,
I cried about you, I cried about you.

Of all the things you said you wanted to do, There was only one time when i wouldn't let you
Of all the things that you said you wanted to be,  I remember the last thing you promised me,
You said, I would have married you.
I would have married you.

First there was some bruises, Then we made excuses.
I would never harm you, Someone had to warn you.

Of all the things you said you wanted to do, There was only one time when i wouldn't let you
Of all the things that you said you wanted to be,  I remember the last thing you promised me,
You said, I would have married you.
