The Gabe Dixon Band-Five More Hours
Off of their Eponymous album.
Listen to the song cause the rhythm staggers quite a bit. And my notes on the licks are
to be quite detailed, if it doesn't make sense move onto the basic lyrics and chords.
I'm a pianist.
Intro:
-pick up notes: (C#)(C#) (B) (B) (A)
(F#) (F#) (E) (E)
-The F# notes should be played as D chords
-The E notes should be played as A Chords
-The last A chord/E note should be the first beat of the next measure
-Chords: (Intro riff) | A - - A/C# | Dsus2 - - (Intro Riff) | x3
-During the and of four count of the first measure with the A chord, the notes are
and (E) which eventually leads to the Dsus2 chord.

Angel takes the wheel for me, When I'm too tired to drive alone
A Dsus2
Mesmerized by highway lights, flying underneath

Bm7 A/C# Dadd9 A/C#
I've got five more hours of highway. Five more hours to go

Heaven only knows the time I've wasted. I'm so close now, I can almost taste it
