G Cadd9
I bet this road will take me out of here
G Cadd9
Take me far away from Amarillo
G D
I bet this car will go real fast
Cadd9
The wheels might even drive me past
G D Cadd9 G
The places that you said I'd never go - ohhhh
G Cadd9
The Texas sky is the biggest one I've seen
G Cadd9
But it still ain't big enough for you and me
G D Cadd9
All the things that make you mad and all the baggage in your past
G D Cadd9
Don't leave much room for a girl like me to be
G D G
So I'll fill her up with hope and worn out dreams
G
I'll grab the wheel and point it west
D/F#
Pack the good and leave the rest
Cadd9
I?ll drive until I find the missing piece
G
You said I wouldn't get too far
D/F#
On a tank of gas and an empty heart
Cadd9
But I got everything I'll ever need
G D G
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings
Mama said I never should have done it
Should have ended us before we ever started
Daddy knew about my pride so he stood there
and he smiled inside
and I pretended that I didn't notice
a little tear that fell when I said I was going
Chorus
Bridge:
D Cadd9
I've worried about life and if it's right and right on time
D Cadd9 D
I guess if you don't jump you'll never know if you can fly
Solo
2nd half of Chorus
