[Verse 1]
G
D C G
Blue Kentucky highway, headin' for the line
D C G
She hadn't said a word all night, but the wheels are turning in her mind
C G
Now I was ridin' shotgun, and I knew things were going right
A
Just as soon as she dropped me off at the side of the road
D
And she let that gravel fly
[Chorus]
D
G
Now I'm walking in the moonlight
C
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
G Em
That's a pair of taillights
A D
I may never see again
G
She hit me with a left and right
C
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights
G Em A
That's about as lonely as a highway has ever been
C D G
Back here with my thumb out in the wind
[Verse 2]
G
D C G
Was it something that I did to her, or the things I never said
D C G
I wonder if the way we were was only in my head
C G
Now if I even make it back alive before the sun comes up
A
I'm gonna hit every parking spot around
D
'Till I find that pickup truck
[Chorus]
D
G
Now I'm walking in the moonlight
C
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
G Em
That's a pair of taillights
A D
I may never see again
G
She hit me with a left and right
C
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights
G Em A
That's about as lonely as a highway has ever been
C D G
Back here with my thumb out in the wind
[Bridge]
G
Em
Well I'll bet right now she's laughin' at how
A
She brought me to my knees
C D
But she won't be laughin' half as loud when she gives me back my keys
[Chorus]
D
G
Now I'm walking in the moonlight
C
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
G Em
That's a pair of taillights
A D
I may never see again
G
She hit me with a left and right
C
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights
G Em A
That's about as lonely as a highway has ever been
C D G
Back here with my thumb out in the wind
