Chords with lyrics
Capo 4th fret
D MajorD A augmentedA
Way on past the boulevards
G+G D MajorD
Out here underneath the stars
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
I've been flying past the houses, farms and fields
D MajorD A augmentedA
Leaving all I know back there
G+G D MajorD
Rushing through the cold night air
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
And I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel
D MajorD A augmentedA
Staying clear of the interstate
G+G D MajorD
I'm seeking out those old two lanes
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
Trying to explain the way I feel
D MajorD A augmentedA
Till all at once it's half past three
G+G D MajorD
And it's down...to just the trucks and me
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
And I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel
A augmentedA D MajorD
I've been trying to drive you off my mind
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Maybe that way baby I can leave it all behind
D MajorD A augmentedA
And forty-one goes on and on
G+G D MajorD
And the lights go winding in the dawn
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
The sky's the color now of polished steel
D MajorD A augmentedA
And the only thing I know for sure
G+G D MajorD
Is if you don't want me anymore
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
Then I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel
