[Verse]
G                   C
Side of the highway
             G      D
Rain pourin' down
                                 C          G
And I can't remember where I was headed to now
G                          C
Red stone on the dashboard
                 G     D
My head in the clouds
                               C                G
I get in my lane baby I don't want to get out
 G                       C
Can't take it for granted
                    G     D
When you feel this alive
                                C           G
Give a nod to the crosses all along the roadside
 G                                           C            G      D
It's hard to imagine that I didn't want to learn how to drive
                                   C               G
Roll down the window now just to let in the sky
F     C                    G
Radio on and my left foot tappin'
F         C                      G
Things I know and the things I imagine
F           C                          G
The people I've seen in the cars I'm passin'
F           C                        G
Rearview mirror and the red lights flashin'
                             C
Oh please lord don't let it happen
G                      C
Sunlight on the canyon
                G       D
Thin layer of snow
                                        C             G
A bullet hole in a motel window and a burnin' mobile home
G                         C                         G       D
And the wheel in your hand is the only thing you control
                                              C                 G
The world’s just whippin' on past you like a line of telephone poles

F           C                G
The gasoline in the air I'm breathin'
F            C                       G
The things I doubt and the things I believe in
F            C                              G
The feeling you have when it's more than a feeling
F            C                      G
The city I trust, and the city I’m leavin'
                             C
Oh maybe we'll just call it even
G                                C
There's a crack in my windshield
                   G         D
And I'm hopin' it holds
                                 C               G
There's a crack in everything I hold close to my soul
G                         C                 G    D
And the woman I'm next to, she'll never get old
                          C          G
I'll never forget you on American roads
