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