Strum through the chord progression and use a little "hammer on-then-off" while playing
the "C" and "Am" chords in the intro and throughout the song at your discretion, just
listen to the song and you'll hear the "hammering." (diagram below) Also I included an
optional "E" chord in the chorus that I like to add in, it sounds fine if you choose not to.
Enjoy, Taylor R.

C Am
Settin' fires, and dark desires
F G
And nights that I just ca'nt, recall
C Am
I woke up flyin', with the angels
F G
With no one to catch me, when I fall
C G
Goin down the wrong road, and livin by the wrong code and
Am G F
Chasin after dreams that dont come true
C G (E) F
Lookin for the right signs, and ridin on the white lines just,
G Am
Tryin to find my way, to you
C Am
Well theres been high times, and there's been hard times
F G
And theres been times I couldnt tell
C Am
If I'm livin a good life or livin a bad life
F G
Cause Im always livin fast as hell
C G
Goin down the wrong road, and livin by the wrong code and
Am G F
Chasin after dreams that dont come true
C G (E) F
Lookin for the right signs, and ridin on the white lines just,
G Am
Tryin to find my way, to you
C Am
From an Alabama porch, to a dirty barroom floor
F G
Burnin bridges, ive never even crossed
C Am
From when I didnt have a care, to when I didnt have a prayer
F G
I never once thought I was lost, somehow I knew
Am-G-F
Id find my way to you
C G
Goin down the wrong road, and livin by the wrong code and
Am G F
Chasin after dreams that dont come true
C G (E)

Lookin for the right signs, and ridin on the white lines just,
G Am-G-F
Tryin to find my way, to you
