C F C
I've been out on that open road

You can be my full-time daddy, white and gold

Singing blues has been getting old

You can be my full- time baby, hot or cold
[Pre-Chorus]

Don't break me down

I've been driving too long
F
I've been trying too hard
G
With one pretty song
[Chorus]
F Am G Dm
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
Dm Em F
I am alone at midnight
F Am G Dm
Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I
Dm Em F
I've got a war in my mind

So, i just ride
Dm Em F

Dying young and i'm playing hard

Drink all day and we talk 'til dark

Don't leave me now

Don't say goodbye

Don't turn around

Leave me high and dry
