The Open Road - John Hiatt
Intro:
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
[Bm]Shrunken head and [G]Mardi Gras [D]beads
[Bm]Hanging on a rearview [G]mirror that [D]bleeds
[Bm]Keepin' her eyes on the [G]open r[D]oad
[Bm]No tellin' where that [G]son-a bitch [D]goes
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
[Bm]Got her doors locked doin' [G]75[D]
[Bm]Don't care to be caught now, [G]dead or [D]alive
[Bm]Seen enough to kill [G]anyone's [D]soul
[Bm]Keepin' her eyes on the [G]open [D]road
[Bm]Keepin' her eyes on the [G]open [D]road
The [G]open road where the [A]hopeless come
[G]To see if [A]hope still runs
[G]One by one they bring their [G]broke [D]down [A]loads
And [G]leave 'em where the hobo [A]dreams are stowed
Out on the [Bm]open [G]road[D][A]
Out on the [Bm]open [G]road[D][A]
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
[Bm]Midnight fallin' like a [G]bag of [D]bones
[Bm]Weighted down now the [G]rest with [D]stones
[Bm]Bouncin' off a river the [G]moon made [D]steel
[Bm]Cracking off the chrome of a [G]steering [D]wheel
[Bm]Anything back there is [G]burned and [D]dead
[Bm]Any love they made any [G]words they [D]said
[Bm]Nothing to do now but [G]drop it and [D]roll
[Bm]Into the lights of the [G]open [D]road
[Bm]Into the lights of the [G]open [D]road
The [G]open road where the [A]hopeless come
[G]To see if [A]hope still runs
[G]One by one they bring their [G]broke [D]down [A]loads
And [G]leave 'em where the hobo [A]dreams are stowed
Out on the [Bm]open [G]road[D][A]
Out on the [Bm]open [G]road[D][A]
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
[Bm]Shrunken head and [G]Mardi Gras [D]beads
[Bm]Hanging on a rearview [G]mirror on the [D]beach
[Bm]Keepin' their eyes on the [G]open r[D]oad
[Bm]No tellin' where that [G]son-a bitch [D]goes
The [G]open road where the [A]hopeless come
[G]To see if [A]hope still runs
[G]One by one they bring their [G]broke [D]down [A]loads
And [G]leave 'em where the hobo [A]dreams are stowed
Out on the [Bm]open [G]road [D] [A] (8x)
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
Out on the [Bm]open road [G] [D] (4x)
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D | repeat & fade
