Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

    C                     G
I'm driving tonight all I see is your face
Am                        F
 wonder what you're doing now
        C                         G
With my foot to the floor in this go nowhere race
    Am                        F
I'd quit you but I don't know how
    C                 G
The devil behind me I feel his hot breath
Am                       F
 wonder why I don't give in
 C                        G
Another poor loser that's hell bent for death
        F         G           Am
Stayin' one mile ahead of the end

Verse 2:

     C                       G
Just twisting and turning on these mountain roads
     Am                    F
Just racing,   chasing the wind
    C                       G
The devil, he's laughing, I don't wanna go
        Am                  F
I ain't ready to pay for my sins
C                     G
All I can hear is the motor's sweet whine
        Am                      F
And the rush of the cold autumn wind
  C                     G
Rememberin' back to the days you were mine
    F        G           Am
Can never go back there again


Verse 3:

    C                    G
The devil he sits like a bird on my shoulder
   Am                          F
He laughs and he whispers your name
   C                       G
He says I bet you wish one time you could hold her
  Am                        F
Before you check out of the game
   C                       G
He screams in my ear, says kid let me steer
       Am                       F
You're driving just like an old woman
    C                          G
Man give it some gas or you'll get nowhere fast
          F            G        Am
Can't you see you're already forgotten


Verse 4:

    C                    G
The oil is burning we're twistin' and turning
    Am                      F
The engine is smelling like brimstone
  C                           G
I hear the trees calling like tears their leaves falling
  Am                        F
I know that it's time to go home
    C                     G
I'm praying to Jesus, the devil, he's laughing
   Am                F
No witnesses to my demise
      C                     G
I let go of the wheel in my coffin of steel
    F            G             Am
And dream of the tears in your eyes
      C                     G
I let go of the wheel in my coffin of steel
    F            G             Am
And dream of the tears in your eyes
 F            G             Am
