Verse
F# C#
Tonight I feel ambitious
D#m
And so does my foot
B F#
As it sinks on the pedal
G#m B
I press it to the floor
F# C#
I don't need a girl
D#m
Don't need a friend
B F#
Cause my friend, lonesome's unconditional
G#m B
We're flying forever bored
F# C# D#m
For a moment I love everything
B F#
That I see and think and feel
G#m B
I love my broken side view mirror
F# C#
Cause it's so perfect
D#m
I'm so perfect
B
You're so perfect
F#
You're not here
G#m
I hear the change in gears
[Bridge]
C# B C#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
B
This is an open road song
[Verse 02]
F# C#
The night is beckoning
D#m B F#
Although I have nowhere to go but home
G#m B
Feels good to be alone
F# C# D#m
With every turn comes a new frame of mind
B F#
If I could frame my mind
G#m
Where oh would it hang?
[Chorus]

My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road

My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C# B
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road

This is an open road song
[Verse 03]
F# C#
I crack a window
D#m B F#
And feel the cool air cleanse my every pore
G#m B
As I pour my poor heart out
F# C# D#m B F#
To a radio song that's patient and willing to listen
G#m B
My volume drowns it out
F# C#
Yeah but that's OK
D#m B F#
Cause I sound better than him anyway any day
F# G#m B
Yeah my voice is sweet as salt
F# C# D#m
I search for comfort and I find it
B F#
Where I've found it many times before
G#m B Cadd9
Times before can be forgotten (Yeah)
[Chorus]
C# B
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C# B
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C# B
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C# B
This is an open road song
