Intro:
A5 Am A Am A G Am
G Am A Am A Am G Am A Am
Verse 1:
Am
After three hours at the wheel, I found myself beyond the borders of my experience
From there it was one alien world after another
Am
Ghost towns, painted deserts, hamburger stands, neon temples
Canyons carved by patient rivers
A Am
Craters gouged by giant hunks of rock flung from who knows where
The headlights quit somewhere around mile 400
A G Am
But I drove on through the darksome night
Pedal down to the floor, windows wide
A G Am F Am
Strange words repeating, repeating, repeating in my head
G Am F Am
I kept my eyes on the long white lines
G
And I drove like hell
Instrumental:
Am Dm G Am Dm A Am
Verse 2:
Am
Above me shone a terrifying number of stars
G Am
Spelling out the cold indifference of the universe
A
I tried to stare at the road ahead
G Am
I saw a huge storm far off on the horizon
C
Dark and crawling with lightning
G Am
Just looking at that churning mass
Set in all that immense emptiness
C Am
Made me feel something I'd never felt before
C Am
Something between awestruck and horrified
I kept my eyes on the long white lines
And I laughed like hell
Chorus:
F Dm E Am
I'm gonna leave that city far behind and get a long, long way from there
F Dm Em Am
I've got a burning feeling deep inside of me, and don't know where to put it
F Dm E Am
Now that I've left that place, I feel like someone for the first time in my life
C A Am C Am Dm Gm Am Dm Am
You don't remember what I said, but you'll remember what I did
Verse 3:
A
I found no solace on the radio
C G Am
Nothing but crackpots and static
A Am
UFOs and white noise
C G Am
Scripture and garbled frequencies
C
I tried to switch it off, but the dial snapped in my fingers
A Am A Am
The volume lodged at a distorted maximum
A Am F
So loud, I never even heard the sirens
Am A Am F Am
I gripped the wheel and stomped the pedal
A Am F Am
I said a meaningless prayer through my gritted teeth
F Am
I kept my eyes on the long white lines
G A Am
I laughed like hell
Chorus:
F Dm E Am
I'm gonna leave that city far behind and get a long, long way from there
F Dm Em Am
I've got a burning feeling deep inside of me, and don't know where to put it
F Dm E Am
Now that I've left that place, I feel like someone for the first time in my life
C Am C A Am
You don't remember what I said, but you'll remember what I did
Post-Chorus:
Am
I sure like the feeling of an endless road
(My life is still a tale untold)
A Am
I gotta stop believing in a long-gone past
(If nothing stays forever, who laughs last)
A Am
I sure like the feeling of an endless road
(I'm tired of doing what I'm told)
A Am
I know that life is fleeting, and it all goes fast
A Am C
(If no-one lives forever, who laughs last)
Outro:
