Verse:1
More road up ahead
My radio still broken
[C9]The spinning of the wheels and the fencline lead my [G]way
[G]Your picture on the dash
[D]and the need to fly so high
[C9]Are the only two things [D]that I can hold to[G]day
[G]I left you way down south
[D]crying at the rivers mouth
[C9]I got a show up north so I guess it's just as [G]well
[G]You're still the one for me
[D]But I'm the man I'll always be
[C9]And I won't be the one tha[D]t takes you straight to h[G]ell
Cause I[C9]'m out here on my own [D]
[G]Drinkin' all alo[C9]ne
Thinkin' bout things a[D]nd what I left be[Em]hind
[C9]and I need you more right n[D]ow
[G]To give me redemption som[C9]ehow
Rollin' north of that R[D]ed River li[G]ne
Instrumental:
[G] [C9] [D] [C9]
[G] [C9] [D] [G]
[G]So don't you cry for me
[D]Cause I can taste what you can't see
[C9]But always know you got a place in my h[G]eart
[G]I got an angel riding shotgun
[D]I got the devil in the back
[C9]and the war they wage i[D]s gonna tear me a[G]part
Chorus:
Instrumental: Do first instrumental (2x)
[G]As I'm talking to you now
[D]The sun is going down
[C9]I don't know where I am, but God it makes me sm[G]ile
[G]I need just one more word co[D]ming from your sweer lips
And I[C9] swear I'll call you b[D]ack in a little wh[G]ile
Chorus:
[C9]Cause I'm out here on my o[D]wn
[G]too tired and halfway s[C9]toned
[D] [Em]
Thinkin' bout things-------and what I left behind
[C9]and I need you more right n[D]ow
[G]to give me redemption som[C9]ehow
Rollin' north of that R[D]ed River li[G]ne
