Biography:
Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen (born September 23, 1949), nicknamed "The Boss," is an American singer-songwriter and leader of the E Street Band. He is recognized for his poetic lyrics, his Jersey Shore roots, his distinctive voice, and his lengthy, energetic stage performances.

HIGHWAY 29
By Bruce Springsteen
(From the album "The Ghost of Tom Joad")
Note: This is a wonderful song that isn't too tough to play, once you get
the picking pattern down. For ease of play (I'm not sure if Bruce does
this or not, but I suspect it due to the sound of the fill before the last
verse) tune the low E up to an F. This will make the piece much easier to
play than doing full barres for the F.
Picking Pattern and Chord Formations:
C F Am7 C/G G
e |------0-----|------1-----|------0-----|------0-----|------3-----|
B |--------1---|--------1---|--------1---|--------1---|--------0---|

Intro: C
F C
I slipped on her shoe; she was a perfect size seven.
Am7 C/G
I said, "There's no smoking in the store, ma'am."
F
She crossed her legs and then
C
We made some small talk; that's where it should have stopped.
Am7 C/G F
She slipped me her number; I put it in my pocket.
C
My hand slipped up her skirt; everything slipped my mind
Am7 F
In that little roadhouse
C
On Highway 29.
It was a small town bank; it was a mess.
Well, I had a gun. You know the rest.
Money on the floorboards, shirt was covered in blood
And she was cryin'; her and me we headed south
On Highway 29.
Am7 F
In a little desert motel, the air was hot and clean.
C G
I slept the sleep of the dead; I didn't dream.
Am7 F
I woke in the morning, washed my face in the sink.
C G
We headed into the Sierra Madres, 'cross the border line.
The winter sun shot through the black trees
I told myself it was all something in her
But as we drove I knew it was something in me,
Something that'd been comin' for a long, long time
And something that was here with me now
On Highway 29.
Fill: C with walking bass notes: C F G A G C
The road was filled with broken glass and gasoline.
She wasn't saying nothin'; it was just a dream.
The wind come silent through the windshield,
All I could see was snow, sky and pines.
I closed my eyes and I was runnin'.
I was runnin' and then I was flyin'
Outro: F C Am7 C/G F
