Biography:
Son Volt is an alternative country group which formed in 1994 in St. Louis, Missouri. The band currently consists of Jay Farrar (vocals, guitar), Chris Masterson (guitar), Andrew Duplantis (bass, vocals), Mark Spencer (keyboards) and Dave Bryson (drums). Farrar is the only original member remaining in the band.
Son Volt formed after the breakup of the band Uncle Tupelo, owing to the simmering creative differences between songwriters Farrar and Jeff Tweedy.

CAPO 1
[A5] [A]
Every [D] road
Has a [G] story to [D] tell
Of [G] dreams that have [D] soared
And [G] dreams that [A] fell
Of finding that [D] level
That says [G] out of con[D]trol
[G] Prospecting [D] riches
That re[A]side in the [D] soul
CHORUS (abbreviated)
Throw this [G] love down the [D] highway
[G] See where it [A] turns
[G] Life is a [D] shell game
Lessons [A] lost, lessons [D] learned
[A]
There will never be a [D] time
Like the [G] time that is [D] now
To [G] reach for the [D] promise
Of [G] melody on the [A] bough
Break up the [D] silence
Make it [G] clear, make it [D] last
[G] Forgiveness [D] given
Break [A] away from the [D] past
CHORUS (full)
Throw this [G] love down the [D] highway
[G] See where it [A] turns
[G] Life is a [D] shell game
Lessons [G] lost, lessons [A] learned

Throw this [G] love down the [D] highway
[A] See where it takes [D] you

While the [D] mortar and [G] bricks may [D] crumble
[G] Time moves [D] along with a [G] dance-step [A] stumble

[G] Break up the [D]silence, make it [A] clear make it [D] last
