#1.s-
D# G#.u
Was ridin' alongside the highway, rollin' up the country side.e-
D# G#
Thinkin' I'm the devil's heatwave, what you burn in your crazy mind?
D# C# G#
Saw a slight distraction standin' by the road..
C# A#
she was smilin' there, yellow in her hair.
D# D#7
Do you wanna, I was thinkin', would you care?
CHORUS:
A# G# D#
Sweet hitch-a-hiker, we could make music at the Greasy King.
A# G#
Sweet hitch-a-hiker, won't you ride on my fast machine?
#2.
D# G#
Cruisin' on thru the junction, I'm flyin' 'bout the speed of sound,
D# G#
noticin' peculiar function, I ain't no roller coaster, slow me down.
D# C# G#
I turned away to see her..whoa! she caught my eye..
C# A#
but I was rollin' down, movin' too fast.
D# D#7
Do you wanna, she was thinkin', can it last?

D# G#
Was busted up along the highway, I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive.
D# G#
Wondering if you're goin' my way, won't you give a poor boy a ride?
D# C# G#
Well, here she comes a ridin', Lord, she's flyin' high..

but she was rollin' down, movin' too fast.
