[Am] [G] Well the drums rolled off in my forehead Guns went off in my chest
[Em] Remember carrying the baby just for [Am] you Crying in the wilderness
[G] I lost track of my friends I lost my kin
Hunting my pheasants [Em] I drove out over the flatlands
[Am] Hunting down you and him [G] The sky was big and empty
My chest filled to explode [Em] I yelled my insides out at the sun
[Am] The wide open road [G] It's a wide open road
It's a wide open road
[Em]
How [Am] [G] do you think it feels Sleeping by yourself
[Em] The one you love, the one you [Am] love If it's someone else
[G] Then it's a wide open road It's a wide open road
[Em] Yeah you can go any [Am] place That you want to go
[G] I wake up in the morning Thinking I'm still by your side
I reach out just to touch you [A] Then I realize
[G] It's a wide open road It's a wide open [Em] road
[Am] How [G] do you think it feels [C] Sleeping [G] by yourself
[Em] The one you love, the one you [Am] love If it's someone else
[G] Then you're welcome to my home It's a wide open road
I reach out just to touch you [A] Then I realize
