Bm G D
Shrunken head and Mardi Gras beads
Bm G D
Hanging on a rearview mirror that bleeds
Bm G D
Keepin' her eyes on the open road
Bm G D
No tellin' where that son-a bitch goes
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
Bm G D
Got her doors locked doin' 75
Bm G D
Don't care to be caught now, dead or alive
Bm G D
Seen enough to kill anyone's soul
Bm G D
Keepin' her eyes on the open road
Bm G D
Keepin' her eyes on the open road
G A
The open road where the hopeless come
G A
To see if hope still runs
G G D A
One by one they bring their broke down loads
G A
And leave 'em where the hobo dreams are stowed
Bm G D A
Out on the open road
Bm G D A
Out on the open road
|Bm |G D |Bm |G D |
Bm G D
Midnight fallin' like a bag of bones
Bm G D
Weighted down now the rest with stones
Bm G D
Bouncin' off a river the moon made steel
Bm G D
Cracking off the chrome of a steering wheel
Bm G D
Anything back there is burned and dead
Bm G D
Any love they made any words they said
Bm G D
Nothing to do now but drop it and roll
Bm G D
Into the lights of the open road
Bm G D
Into the lights of the open road
G A
The open road where the hopeless come
G A
To see if hope still runs

One by one they bring their broke down loads
G A
And leave 'em where the hobo dreams are stowed
Bm G D A
Out on the open road
Bm G D A

The open road where the hopeless come

To see if hope still runs
