Song title: «Highway 59»
Artist/Band: Calobo
Album: «Runnin’ in the River»
Songwriters: David Andrews and Caleb Klauder

Notes: These lyrics and chords are my best guess/interpretation of how to
Play the song. The small bit of tab is sort of a lead riff that is played
During the verses under the ‘A’ and ‘D’ progression. Listen to the CD to
Get it right. A ‘|’ denotes a measure break when I’m just putting chords
Over lyrics. A ‘/’ denotes a slide from the first note to the second note
When I’m writing tablature.
