INTRO:
G+G E minorEm  G+G E minorEm  G+G E minorEm  G+G E minorEm

VERSE:
G+G         E minorEm
 Maybe, baby, I`m crazy
 G+G          C majorC
But I`m down on my knees
G+G       E minorEm
 I want you to go
           D MajorD  C majorC
Come and go with me please

VERSE:
G+G             E minorEm
 This life you`re living, honey
 G+G        C majorC
You die day at a time
G+G            E minorEm
 There`s something that calls
       D MajorD  C majorC
Make up your mind


CHORUS:
G+G D MajorD C majorC  D MajorD   G+G      D MajorD   C majorC D MajorD

G+G D MajorD C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
 Ba-by, you gotta get young
  D MajorD      C majorC D MajorD
Before you get old
G+G   D MajorD    C majorC D MajorD
 Come on, come on
 G+G   D MajorD    C majorC
Lighten up your load
 D MajorD      G+G
There ain`t nothin`
  E minorEm   C majorC
But you and me
    D MajorD   G+G G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G
And an open road

VERSE;
 G+G           E minorEm
`Cause we were born to wander
G+G            C majorC
Oh, we were not born to lose
G+G           E minorEm
I must follow distant thunder
         D MajorD  C majorC
Or I`ll get the blues


VERSE:
 G+G         E minorEm
And the lightning flashing
 G+G            C majorC
Reveals a dream in your eyes
 G+G         E minorEm
And the message it sends
      D MajorD  C majorC
Is hard to deny


CHORUS:
G+G D MajorD   C majorC  D MajorD   G+G      D MajorD   C majorC D MajorD
Ba-a-by, baby let`s watch all the rivers flow
G+G D MajorD C majorC      D MajorD     G+G
Ba-a-by, you`re gonna get young
  D MajorD      C majorC D MajorD
Before you get old
G+G D MajorD     C majorC   D MajorD
 Out in the distance
G+G    D MajorD     C majorC
Let the four winds blow
 D MajorD      G+G
There ain`t nothin`
  E minorEm   C majorC
But you and me
    D MajorD   G+G G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G G+G C majorC D MajorD
And the open road


BREAK:
C majorC
 It`s a highway trance
          G+G   G+G
Babe you`ve fallen under
 C majorC
Love forever
           D MajorD
On a road that never ends, oh, oh, oh


VERSE:
 G+G        E minorEm
Border town in Dakota
 G+G           C majorC
Where the Missouri runs wide
 G+G             E minorEm
We`ll cross the piggyback bridge there
         D MajorD  C majorC
Reach the other side


VERSE:
G+G         E minorEm
 Listen to the ghost dance
G+G         C majorC
In the valley of gold
 G+G            E minorEm
Where the ones who understand
        D MajorD
Respect the buffalo
 C majorC
Woh, oh, oh, oh


CHORUS:

 G+G   D MajorD    C majorC
Lighten up your load
 D MajorD      G+G
There ain`t nothin`
  E minorEm   C majorC
But you and me
 D MajorD      G+G
There ain`t nothin`
  E minorEm   C majorC
But you and me
 D MajorD      G+G
There ain`t nothin`
  E minorEm   C majorC
But you and me
    D MajorD   G+G G+G
And the open road


OUTRO:

The open road
