Capo 2
G - 320033
Cadd9X32033
I [G]bet this road will take me out of [Cadd9]here
[G]Take me far away from Ama[Cadd9]rillo
I [G]bet this car will [D]go real fast
The [Cadd9]wheels might even drive me past
The [G]places that you [D]said I'd never [Cadd9]go - ohh[G]hh
The [G]Texas sky is the biggest one I've [Cadd9]seen
But it [G]still ain't big enough for you and [Cadd9]me
[G]All the things that [D]make you mad and [Cadd9]all the baggage in your past
Don't [G]leave much room for a [D]girl like me to [Cadd9]be
So I'll [G]fill her up with [D]hope and worn out [G]dreams
Chorus:
I'll [G]grab the wheel and point it west
[D/F#]Pack the good and leave the rest
[Cadd9]Ill drive until I find the missing piece
You [G]said I wouldn't get too far
On a [D/F#]tank of gas and an empty heart
But [Cadd9]I got everything I'll ever need
I got this [G]old guitar and a [D]brand new set of [G]strings
Mama said I never should have done it
Should have ended us before we ever started
Daddy knew about my pride so he stood there
and he smiled inside
and I pretended that I didn't notice
a little tear that fell when I said I was going
Chorus
Bridge:
I've [D]worried about life and if it's [Cadd9]right and right on time
I [D]guess if you don't jump you'll never [Cadd9]know if you can f[D]ly
Solo
