Intro - C# minorC#m - A augmentedA - BB = 2x's
(verse 1)
BB
It's been a long week, I've got a slow leak In my left front tire
BB
I'm sick of where I work, my boss is such a jerk Don't care if I get fired
BB
My back's about to break, no money in the bank And she don't call me anymore
D MajorD
I'm down my last drink It's time to sell my things
(chorus)
A augmentedA
And pack my bags and never look back Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
BB
And make my getaway
C# minorC#m
I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
A augmentedA
Leave everyone sleepin in this sleepy town tonight
BB
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway
BB
A augmentedA hundred miles in, I've got a stupid grin On my scruffy face
BB
With every cigarette, I'm burnin my regret Don't wanna leave a trace
BB
And from my rear view, I've got a clear view Of who I used to be
D MajorD
A augmentedA little bit faster now Don't wanna turn around
(chorus)
A augmentedA
And pack my bags and never look back Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
BB
And make my getaway
C# minorC#m
I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
A augmentedA
Leave everyone sleepin in this sleepy town tonight
BB
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway I'll be a runaway
(bridge)
A augmentedA
It's crazy, I know, to count on this road To give me what I need
BB
But with every state line, somehow I find Another part of me YEA
(Lead - C# minorC#m - A augmentedA - BB = 2x's)
(chorus)
A augmentedA
I'm gonna pack my bags and never look back Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
BB
And make my getaway
C# minorC#m
I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
A augmentedA
Leave everyone sleepin in this sleepy town tonight
BB
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway I'll be a runaway
BB
I'll be a runaway
