D G
Full speed along the North Oconee River
D
I can feel it in my forehead and while that always fails, my lungs are getting better
G Em
I see trucks racing by on the roof above my trail, cops are waiting to ticket
A D
Anyone with out of state plates, I'm not missing anything
D G
[Verse 2]
D G
Swore off all prescribed medication
D
And rode two miles through nowhere to a water fountain spitting out hot water
G
I sit at a bench at a compost heap
Em
And I'm about to pedal up a sixty degree slope
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A F#
At the top of a hill, of a hill, at a very, very rapid speed
Bm A Em
There's one, only one, only one, only one place left to go
A F#
At the top of a hill, of a hill at a very, very rapid speed
Bm A
There's one, only one, only one place left to
[Chorus 1]
G D
At the top of a hill at very high speed
F# Bm A
There's nowhere to go but down
G D
At the top of a hill at very high speed
F# Bm A
There's nowhere to go but down
G D
At the top of a hill at very high speed
F# Bm A
There's nowhere to go but down
G A
[Bridge]
D
And it gets easier
G
As I ascend my bike uphill on foot
Em
'Cause last time I kicked it into first
A
I broke a gear by going too hard
D
And it gets easier
G
As I pass the Edward Scissorhands village
Em
Where privileged white kids date rape girls
A
And taunt me in their SUVs
D
And it gets easier
G
As I see the double vans in our driveways
Em
I'm glistening now but I know someday
A
I won't even break a sweat
[Chorus 2]
D G
And it gets easier, and it gets easier
Em A
As time goes things can only get better
D G
And it gets easier, and it gets easier
Em A
As time goes things can only get better
D G
And it gets easier, and it gets easier
Em A
As time goes things can only get better
D G
And it gets easier, and it gets easier
Em A
As time goes things can only get better
[Outro]
Bm A G
R-I-D-E, I wanna
Bm A G
R-I-D-E, I wanna
Bm A G D
R-I-D-E, I wanna ride
