Verse 1:
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Look at me, so damaged and destroyed
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
with this world's plans and its ploys to take me out
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
I'm on a highway directly to the moon
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
with no plans of stopping soon I'm leaving town
Pre-Chorus:
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
no heavens could top this moment now
Verse 2:
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
My foot out the window, my flask halfway full
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
I may have to pull over soon
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
I can't afford a motel but the floorboards will work well
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
and I'll sleep there 'til tomorrow afternoon
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And I'll get on the road again had another chance at fitting in
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
but fitting in to kids like me is dying
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And I know when I'm with you after one shot or 22
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
and a cigarette I feel like I'm flying
Chorus:
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
no heavens could top this moment now
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7 E minor 7Em7
you must trek through some dark and troubled grounds
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
So may we all, once or twice,
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G D MajorD
once in this life just look around
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Usually I'm a wreck but the hard times were just a step
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7 E minor 7Em7
to get to where I am on this ninth cloud
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
Verse 2:
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
We're singing feeling good again just past 3:04am
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
and I'm talking like the sun will never rise
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
But the sun will crest the trees and bring this devil to his knees
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7 E minor 7Em7
as it outlines the silver in these skies
Chorus:
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
no heavens could top this moment now
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
you must trek through some dark and troubled grounds
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
So may we all, once or twice,
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7
once in this life just look around
G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Usually I'm a wreck but the hard times were just a step
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7 E minor 7Em7
to get to where I am on this ninth cloud
