[Verse]
G C G
Old north wind wants to read me my last rites
D
This ain’t no place to die
G C G
Warm beers with the boys who’ve never been
Am D7 G
Won’t take very long tonight
G C G
Every bar stool’s occupied
D
Truckers, farmers, and me
G C G
Another brawl in the parking lot
Am D7 G
And, babe, why’d you have to leave?
[Chorus]
G C
Takin’ I-94
G C
Shut up, get in, lock the door
G D
Do some highway cruisin’
Em C
Tired of love and losin’
G Am D7 G
Takin’ I-94
[Verse]
G C G
Jack’s gone back for his third tour in Iraq
D
Billy’s been belly-up since late on three
G C G
Mary’s married nearly everyone I know
Am D7 G
And her eyes are makin’ out with me
[Chorus]
G C
Takin’ I-94
G C
Shut up, get in, lock the door
G D
Do some highway cruisin’
Em C
Tired of love and losin’
G Am D7 G
Takin’ I-94
[Verse]
D C G
Your cold heart put me down upon my knees
C G D
What you wish I were is in your eyes
C G
Your hard words hit me right where I believe
C G D
In a simple truth that’ll hide a thousand lies
C G
Oh, maybe I’m the lucky one
C G
Maybe if I cut and run
C G D
Maybe I’m a fool to want to stay
C G
Maybe I want more than this
C G
I want everything I’ve ever missed
C G D
I want you lookin’ back at the one who got away
G C G
Bartender, let me see my bill
D
I ain’t no good at goodbyes
G C G
Jukebox keeps singin’ some song about goin’ home
Am D7 G
And I got leavin’ on my mind.
[Chorus]
G C
Takin’ I-94
G C
Shut up, get in, lock the door
G D
Do some highway cruisin’
Em C
Tired of love and losin’
G Am D7 G
Takin’ I-94
