Road Goes On Forever
nível iniciante
Verse 
 D 
Sherry was a waitress At the only joint in town 
    G 
She had a reputation As a girl who'd been around 
D 
Down main street after midnight Brand new pack of cigs 
    G               
A fresh one hanging from her lips A beer between her legs 
       A     
She'd ride down to the river And meet with all her friends 

Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends 
D  
Sonny was a loner Bolder than the rest 
    G 
He was goin' in the Navy But he couldn't pass the test 
    D 
We hung around town He sold a little pot 
     G 
The law caught wind of Sonny One day he got caught 
    A     
But he was back in business When they set him free again 

Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends 
  D  
Sonny's playin' eight ball At the joint where Sherry works 
  G   
When some drunken out of towner Put his hand up Sherry's skirt 
 D 
Sonny took his pool cue Laid the drunk out on the floor 
   G 
Stuffed a dollar in her tip jar Walked on out the door 
    A 
She's runnin' right behind him Reachin' for his hand 

Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends 
 D 
They jumped into his pick-up Sonny jammed her down in gear 
 G  
Sonny looked at Sherry Said," Let's get out of here" 
      D 
The stars were high above them The  moon was in the east 
     G 
The sun was setting on them When they reached Miami Beach 
     A 
They got a motel by the water And a quart of Bombay Gin
 
Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends  


   D 
They soon ran out of money But Sonny knew a man 
     G 
Who knew some Cuban refugees Who dealt in contraband 
  D 
Sonny met the Cuban In a house just off the route 
 G 
With a briefcase full of money And a pistol in his boot 
      A 
The cards were on the table When the law came bustin' in
 
Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends  
      D   
The Cubans grabbed the goodies And Sonny grabbed the jack 
     G 
He broke the bathroom window And climbed on out the back 
   D  
Sherry drove the pick-up Through the alley on the side 
  G  
Where the lawman tackled Sonny And was reading him his rights 
     A   
She stepped out in the alley With a single shot four-ten 

Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends 
  D 
They left the lawman dyin' They made their get away 
  G 
Got back to the motel Just before the break of day 
   D 
Sonny gave her all the money And he blew a little kiss 
     G 
If they ask you how this happened Say I forced you into this 
      A  
She watched him as his tail lights Disappeared around the bend 

Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends  
  D  
There's main street after midnight Just like it was before 
  G 
Twenty-one months later At the local grocery store 
   D 
Sherry buys a paper And a cold six pack of beer 
      G 
The headlines read that Sonny Is going to the chair 
      A 
She pulls back onto main street In her new Mercedes-Benz 

Chorus 
     G                                        D 
The road goes on forever And the party never ends
