Verse
F C
Tonight I feel ambitious
Dm
And so does my foot
A# F
As it sinks on the pedal
Gm A#
I press it to the floor
F C
I don't need a girl
Dm
Don't need a friend
A# F
Cause my friend, lonesome's unconditional
Gm A#
We're flying forever bored
F C Dm
For a moment I love everything
A# F
That I see and think and feel
Gm A#
I love my broken side view mirror
F C
Cause it's so perfect
Dm
I'm so perfect
A#
You're so perfect
F
You're not here
Gm
I hear the change in gears
[Bridge]
C A# C
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
A#
This is an open road song
[Verse 02]
F C
The night is beckoning
Dm A# F
Although I have nowhere to go but home
Gm A#
Feels good to be alone
F C Dm
With every turn comes a new frame of mind
A# F
If I could frame my mind
Gm
Where oh would it hang?
[Chorus]
C A#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C A#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C A#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C A#
This is an open road song
[Verse 03]
F C
I crack a window
Dm A# F
And feel the cool air cleanse my every pore
Gm A#
As I pour my poor heart out
F C Dm A# F
To a radio song that's patient and willing to listen
Gm A#
My volume drowns it out
F C
Yeah but that's OK
Dm A# F
Cause I sound better than him anyway any day
F Gm A#
Yeah my voice is sweet as salt
F C Dm
I search for comfort and I find it
A# F
Where I've found it many times before
Gm A# Cadd9
Times before can be forgotten (Yeah)
[Chorus]
C A#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C A#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C A#
My pile shakes as I hit eighty on the open road
C A#
This is an open road song
