D F G It happened fast, it's over quick A little dust, and the engine kicks Did your hands drift down off the wheel? Roll out, hit your windshield D C An eyelash or a little bit of sleep? Time stands still Just call it now, and you're on your way Chorus: F G F D Hey F G F D Hey hey F G F D Hey All the ashtrays, cities, and the freeway drives Broken casino and water-slides Eighteen-wheeler, payback dice Gravity pulls on the power line Jet stream cuts the desert sky, this is a land could eat a man alive Say you'll leave it all behind Chorus There's a radio tower that's egging you on Back to the place where you never belong Where the people thrive on their own contempt Whatever meaning is long gone, spent If you had to guess or make a bet Would you place yourself inside of it? The mountains yawn, the clouds let out a sigh "Tricked again," let go, okay Chorus: Hey Hey hey Hey Hey hey Hey You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C  D  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
