♫ Verse 1:
G                               D
Somewhere in the panhandle of Texas
     G                                 D
On a midnight ride, just me and my old man
   G                                D
We finally found a few long-lost connections
       Bm7                                 A
And we learned sometimes a bridge you burn still stands
   G                                    D
We talked about our old friends and our exes
     G                                  D
And agreed we both had dreams that just need plans
  G                                      D
I thanked him for the tough love and the lessons
       Bm7                      A
And he finally admitted I'm a man
Bm7              A/C#            D
Lord I'd love to take that ride again

♫ Chorus:
         G                        D
When the future's too far for the headlights
        Bm7            A                G
And the rearview's too dark for looking back
G
When all you got in your life
       D
Is the glow of those dashboard lights
       Bm7                            A
And whoever's riding with you in that cab
    D             Em                D               G
You really get to know what's going on in someone's head
          Bm  A     G        D Bm7 A
On a long ride in a short bed


♫ Verse 2:
D G                                    D
I guess that's why I love a late night highway
             G                        D
When there's hardly any other cars at all
G                                  D
Just because there's no one riding shotgun
Bm7                                 A
That don't mean that I can't have a talk
G                             D
You may say I'm prayin' to my Maker
   G                            D
Or you may say I'm talkin' to myself
  G                           D             Bm7
I don't know if it's crazy or holy, hell it may be
A
All I know for sure
A
Is it sure helps


♫ Chorus:
         G                        D
When the future's too far for the headlights
        Bm7            A                G
And the rearview's too dark for looking back
G
When all you got in your life
       D/F#
Is the glow of those dashboard lights
       Bm7                            A
And whoever's riding with you in that cab
    D             Em                D/F#            G
You really get to know what's going on in someone's head
          Bm  A     G        D Bm7 A G D A
On a long ride in a short bed


♫ Outro:
         D             Em                D/F#       G
Son, you rarely get to know what's goin' on in your own head
              A     G       D Bm A G D A G D
On a long ride in a short bed
