C majorC G+G D MajorD
Hey, so it's a really long story
C majorC G+G D MajorD
But I've been drivin' all afternoon

To come home to my slice of heaven on toast

But my Grand Prix broke down without fail
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Another flat tire and another nail

I miss your smile but this could take a while

On the side of this highway, 'cause back there when

I patched that flat, I ran on fumes
D MajorD E minorEm G+G C majorC D MajorD
And that was a bad move 'cause yeah, I ran out of gas
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
The heavens opened, the rain came down
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
Now I'm soaked to the bone, but I'm homeward bound

Well hey, I'd say that the real question is

Or extremely fashionably late?
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
There ain't nothing ventured, nothing gained

♫ Verse 3:
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
If I blew in by daybreak, I'd be in luck
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
I'd hand you a coffee right when you woke up
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
But my ETA just jumped to MIA
F# minorF#m A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
And I'm so lost, my mind is startin' to stray
F#F# BB E MajorE F#F#
Let's say I fly to Kathmandu
BB E MajorE F#F#
To show the whole world I got a lot to prove
BB E MajorE F#F#
But all I find is all these highways wind

And lead back to my slice of heaven on toast
