[Intro]
D C G 2X
D C G D C G
It was a place of contentment, and the family came by
D C G D C G
For some goodbyes and good lucks and I left 'em behind
D C G
In a rig from the old man,
D C G D C G
Watched the sun comin' up through the fog on the windshield,
D C G
Through the steam from the cup.
C G C G
Eight more miles, eight more miles,
C D G
Eight more miles we'll be high.
C G C G
Can't decide if eight more miles
C D C G
is the top of the world or the end of the line. -
D C G D C G
It's a long strech of highway, drivin' into the wind.
D C G
At the end you'll find the oldest tricks
D C G
In a book I still haven't read.
[Repeat Chorus]

If you go to the end of the road,
F#m D
You look back all the way down the line
You'll see
C G C G
- All those miles, all those miles,
C D G
All those miles from so high.
C G C G
You'll decide if all those miles
C D C G
To the top of the world was worth the ride.
D C G D C G
It was a place of contentment, and the family came by
D C G D C G D
For some goodbyes and tough lucks and I left 'em behind.
