verse 1
C G
I'm driving tonight all I see is your face
Am F
wonder what you're doing now
C G
With my foot to the floor in this go nowhere race
Am F
I'd quit you but I don't know how
C G
The devil behind me I feel his hot breath
Am F
wonder why I don't give in
C G
Another poor loser that's hell bent for death
F G Am
Stayin' one mile ahead of the end
verse 2
C G
Just twisting and turning on these mountain roads
Am F
Just racing, chasing the wind
C G
The devil, he's laughing, I don't wanna go
Am F
I ain't ready to pay for my sins
C G
All I can hear is the motor's sweet whine
Am F
And the rush of the cold autumn wind
C G
Rememberin' back to the days you were mine
F G Am
Can never go back there again
verse 3
C G
The devil he sits like a bird on my shoulder
Am F
He laughs and he whispers your name
C G
He says I bet you wish one time you could hold her
Am F
Before you check out of the game
C G
He screams in my ear, says kid let me steer
Am F
You're driving just like an old woman
C G
Man give it some gas or you'll get nowhere fast
F G Am
Can't you see you're already forgotten
verse 4
C G
The oil is burning we're twistin' and turning
Am F
The engine is smelling like brimstone
C G
I hear the trees calling like tears their leaves falling
Am F
I know that it's time to go home
C G
I'm praying to Jesus, the devil, he's laughing
Am F
No witnesses to my demise
C G
I let go of the wheel in my coffin of steel
F G Am
And dream of the tears in your eyes
C G
I let go of the wheel in my coffin of steel
F G Am
And dream of the tears in your eyes
F G Am
dream of the tears in your eyes
