Verse 1
[Bm] I must [D]look just like a [G] fool
[Bm] Here in the [D]middle of the [G]road
[D] Standin' [A]there in your [G]rearview
Gettin' [Bm]soaked to the [D]bone[G]
[Bm] This land is as [D]flat as it is[G] mean
[Bm] A man can [D]see for hundred [G]miles
[D] So I'm still [A]prayin' I might [G]see
The glow of the [Bm]brake [D]light[G]
Chorus
But your [D]wheels just turn
Down the [Bm]road ahead
If it [G]hurts at all
You ain't [A]showed it yet
I keep [D]a-lookin' for
The [Bm]slightest sign
That [G]you might miss
What you [A]left behind
I [Em]know there's nothin' [D/F#]stoppin' you now[G]

[D] And those bright [A]lights of [G]Hollywood
Would [Bm]fade in time[G][D]

But your [D]wheels just turn
Down the [Bm]road ahead
If it [G]hurts at all

If it [G]hurts at all

on that [Bm]horizon line
c'mon [G]tap those brakes
baby, [A]just one time
I [Em]know there's nothin' [D/F#]stoppin' you now[G]

I'd settle for a [Bm][D]slowdown[G]
