Midnight Highway Chords & Tabs
Well everyone, this is my first tab. I couldn't find any accurate tabs for this song, so
decided to tab it myself. Midnight Highway is a good song to play and sing at the same
because, both vocals and guitar are easy.
The tab is probably 85-90% accurate.
(Listen to the song for strumming pattern.)

Your bitter goodbye is ringing through this quiet night,
This idle hour just won't pass
I've never missed you this much, never thought I would,
Didn't think you'd feel this far away

Your summer perfume is still blowing through this hallway,
Autumn's amber red shadows dance
I miss our midnight rides on highway 18, 18 is gone

So go past the lights and all the excuses
You could have left "sincerely yours"
Don't you think it's obvious that I want to say more?

I'm thinking of your vague reply
So I can understand
Why we put this at rest
Why we forget to
Say that we were leaving
Say that I was sorry
The past remains unspoken
As this vacant night is dieing
But I still miss your summer perfume
This cold air brings such a distance to us
Such a painful distance

I'm still waiting for you to say you hate me now
So I don't have to hold on to this burning heart
This burning heart is getting old, is getting old

And While sitting on this cold kitchen floor,
Head down to hide the tears,
I've realized. I've finally realized

You were never meant for me
