Note: Verse 1 & Verse 2 don't really have lots of guitaring but anyway
here is the chords.
Verse 1:
C7M F7M
I'm a rollin' stone all alone and lost,
G7M A7
For a life of sin I have paid the cost,
F7M G7M
As I walk by all the people say,
A7 F7M C7M
Just another guy on the lost highway,
Verse 2:
C7M F7M
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine,
G7M A7
And a woman's life makes a life like mine,
F7M G7M
On the day we met, I went astray,
A7 F7M C7M
I started going down that lost highway,
Note: You just got to listen to the song to understand this part. This
is a acoustic part done by Chris while Jonny is on the electric
in the 3rd & 4th verse. For those who don't know, p is pull off
or drag to another barr in 1 strike, h is hammer or hit your
finger on 1 barr with 1 finger on the lower barr in 1 strike, r
is release your finger on a higher barr with another finger on
the lower barr in 1 strike. So below you'll see that I've mixed
in both plucking & struming into a tab chart.

Verse 3:
C7M F7M
I was just a lad, only twenty two,
G7M A7
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you,
F7M G7M
On the day we met, it's too late to pray,
A7 F7M C7M
I started going down that lost highway,
Verse 4:
C7M F7M
Now boys don't start to ramblin' round,
G7M A7
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound,
F7M G7M
Take my advice or you'll curse the day,
A7 F7M C7M
You started rollin' down that lost highway,
A7 F7M C7M
You started goin' down that lost highway,
A7 F7M C7M
Goin' down that lost highway,
A7 F7M C7M
Goin' down that lost highway,
