[intro]
[Dm]
[verse]
[Dm]I've been driving all night
[Dm]On a road to nowhere
[Dm]With the devils convoy, black smoke upon my tracks
[Dm]Girl, I hardly knew you
[Dm]But I could never fool you
[Dm]You was always sitting still
[Dm]While the world raced to its grave
[chorus]
[Dm]When the morning breaks
[Dm]I've been driving wide awake
[Dm]Cause I've been running so long
[Dm]Can't recall what it means to stay
Cause I let you [F]slip away like [G]water right through my [Dm]hands
Oh baby, your [F]love's like rain in a [G]desert to a thirsty [Dm]man
[Dm]Thirsty man
[verse]
[Dm]You know I've seen the mountains
[Dm]And the flatlands too
[Dm]I've seen all these city streets
[Dm]But I still go out searching for you
[Dm]Now in the captain's chamber
[Dm]There's a ball and chain
[Dm]You can run for a million miles but you'll never outrun your name
[chorus]
[Dm]When the morning breaks
[Dm]I've been driving wide awake
[Dm]Cause I've been running so long
[Dm]I can't recall what it means to stay
[Dm]And all the children sing
[Dm]And all the old men sing
[Dm]It's better to love and lose
[Dm]Than to gain a world on a string
Cause I let you [F]slip away
Like [G]water right through my [Dm]hands
Oh baby, your [F]love's like rain in a [G]desert to a thirsty [Dm]man
[Dm]Yeah, thirsty man
[solo]
[Dm]
[chorus]
[Dm]When the morning breaks
[Dm]I've been driving wide awake
[Dm]Cause I've been running so long
[Dm]Can't recall what it means to stay
Cause I let you [F]slip away like [G]water right through my [Dm]hands
Oh honey, your [F]love's like rain in a [G]desert to a thirsty [Dm]man
[Dm]Yeah, thirsty man
