♫ Verse 1:
C                                   F
Well He took his first release on a highway
G                      C
In a 1953 green Chevrolet
C                                           F
An he was carryin and awful load for just a 15 year old
G                                                             C
'Til he laid his mind on the center line and turned up the radio

♫ Chorus:
        F                              C             Am
Goin a hundred miles an hour down the blue asphaltum line
G                              Am
Listenin to the Wolfman of Del Rio
       F            G               C
An he didn't give a damn About the trouble he was in
      F                G                     C
Yeah deep down in his soul He just wanted…to go
                F                   C    F                            C
An you can tell by the look on his face he's all caught up with the need
    F                        C               G           G7
To trade in some emptied out spaces for some speeeeeeed
                          C
An that good ol' American Dream

♫ Verse 2:
C                                     F
And she took her first release on the back seat
G                      C
Of a 1961 black V-8 Ford
C                                           F
And she just give up all control on that vinyl tuck-an-roll
G                                                             C
Breathin hard with a dark-eyed boy that she barely even knowed


♫ Chorus:
        F                              C             Am
Goin a hundred miles an hour down the blue asphaltum line
G                              Am
Listenin to the Wolfman of Del Rio
        F            G               C
And she didn't give a damn about the trouble she'd get in
      F                 G                       C
Yeah deep down in her soul She just wanted…to flow
               F                   C    F                            C
And you can tell by the paint on her face she's all made-up for the need
 F                            C              G           G7
To trade in some emptied out places For some speeeeeeed
                          C
And that good ol' American Dream


♫ Outro:
             G                   F                              C
And Now they circle one another armed with the lives from their past
            G                   F                              C
And they fight to the death for their lies 'Til the bad feelings pass
           F            F               F            G
Then they sit and they smoke and they drink and they talk an talk an talk an talk
               C
And then they stalk aroun
              G                                                        C
like they're lookin for something they've lost but can never again be found
          F                                                                                G
And it's crazy Yeah crazy in the backyards the bedrooms the kitchens Crazy out in the streets
                                  C
Through all their cities And even smaller towns
             G                                                  C
And It most certainly seems Some disease of the dreams Has been goin 'round
             G                                                  C
Yes It most certainly seems Some disease of the dreams Has been goin 'round
        F                             C              Am
Goin a hundred miles an hour Down the blue asphaltum line
G                              Am
