I got the version from the 'Chronicle', but there's also a live-version on 'Live in Germany' 
 
VERSE: 
D				   G 
Was Ridin' along side the highway, rollin' up the country side. 
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 
Do you wanna, I was thinkin', would you care.  
 
 
CHORUS: 
A 
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, 
			   G		D 
We could make music at the Greasy King. 
A 
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, 
			G 
Won't you ride on my fast machine?  
 
 
VERSE: 
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 show me down. 
D		  C	 G 
I turned away to see her, Woah! she caught my eye, 
C			A 
But I was rollin' down, movin' too fast; 
D 
Do you wanna, She was thinkin' can it last. 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
SOLO during D  C  G  C  A  D 
 
VERSE: 
D					 G 
Was busted up along the highway, I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive. 
D					       G 
Wond'ring if you're goin' in my way, won't you give a poor boy a ride? 
D		 C      G 
Here she comes a ridin', Lord, She's flyin' high. 
C			  A 
But she was rollin' down, movin' too fast; 
D 
Do you wanna, She was thinkin' can I last. 
 
 
Then repeat the chorus 3 times and fade out. Dat's it. 
 
 
Enjoy!
