Verse 1:
FF       G+G   Eb MajorEb
- I'm fading out of sight
         Bb majorBb   FF
My wheels are the only sound
         G+G    Eb MajorEb
Runnin' at the speed of light
       Bb majorBb  FF
I can't slow down now
     G+G   Eb MajorEb
Out on an open road

Racin' to beat the night
      G+G    Eb MajorEb
No matter where I'm goin'
           Bb majorBb
I guess I'll get all right
        FF
So why don't I understand
          Bb majorBb  C majorC
What's trippin' me up?
            FF
It oughta be a simple thing


Chorus:
       Bb majorBb
I can't hold on
  C majorC     FF

It's time to let go
     C majorC        FF
Start to live and learn

Verse 2:
     G+G    Eb MajorEb
I took a one-way flight
       Bb majorBb    FF
Too high to see the ground
        G+G    Eb MajorEb
Now I know how long it takes
      Bb majorBb  FF
A augmentedA heart to come down
       G+G   Eb MajorEb
Alone on the highway now
        Bb majorBb   FF
I'm takin' it mile by mile
         G+G   Eb MajorEb
I'd rather be a lonely man
          Bb majorBb
Than an imprisoned child
       FF
So why do I feel the strain
            Bb majorBb  C majorC
That keeps trippin' me up?

Will it ever be a simple thing?

I can't hold on
  C majorC     FF
And I can't return
      Bb majorBb
Rivers will run
   C majorC      FF
And bridges will burn
         Bb majorBb
I can't say just how
              AbAb
But there's no lookin' back now

Start to live and learn
