[G] [C]
[F]
[G] Ruff!
[C]
There's a rise and a fall on some highway
A [F] desert wind across my face
[C] My mind is slowly haunted
And [F] for the time I love the [C] place
And the world is so much younger
[Am] There's no reason to hold back
[G] And we're so afraid [C] of losing
All [G] the things we never [C] had
This day is not forever
So they kissed and passed me by
[G] Meet me out tonight on the open [C] road
[Am] Baby we belong together
[C] And if I had you by my side
[G] Meet me out [C] tonight on the open road
[G] [C]
We had a dream you once believed in
We'd [G] be beside [C] you like a fire
We'd be grief and hope turned
Some [F] other dream you passed me by
[C] Now the fire just keeps on burning
And we [Am] still need hunger and desire
[F] But we'll find [C] ourselves a new dream
If this leaves the rest behind
This day is not forever
So they kissed and passed me by
[G] Meet me out tonight on the open [C] road
[Am] Baby we belong together
And [F] if I had you by my side
[G] Meet me out tonight on the open [C] road
[F] Soon we'll go over that horizon
[C]
Where the darkness meets the light
We'll marry all our dreams together
Out [G] on this open road tonight
[C]
[F] [C]
[Am] [G] [C]
[G] [C] This day is not forever
So they kissed and passed me by
[G] Meet me out tonight on the open [C] road
Baby we belong together
And if I had you by my side
[G] Meet me out tonight on the open [C] road
[Am] Baby we belong together
[C] They kissed and passed [F] me by
[G] Meet me out tonight on the open [C] road
[G] On the open [C] road
On the open road
On the open road
On the open road
