[Verse]
C F C
I've been out on that open road
Am
You can be my full time, daddy
F C
White and gold
C F C
Singing blues has been getting old
Am
You can be my full time, baby
F C
Hot or cold
[Pre-Chorus]
F
Don't break me down
Am
I've been travelin' too long
F
I've been trying too hard
G
With one pretty song
[Chorus]
F Am G Am/F
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
F Em F
I am alone in the night
F Am G Am/F
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
F Em F
I've got a war in my mind
F Am G Am/F F Em F (repeat multiple times)
So, I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
[Verse]
C F C
Dying young and I'm playing hard
Am F C
That's the way my father made his life an art
C F C
Drink all day and we talk 'til dark
Am F C
That's the way the road doves do it, ride 'til dark.
[Pre-Chorus]
F
Don't leave me now
Am
Don't say good bye
F
Don't turn around
G
Leave me high and dry
[Chorus]
F Am G Am/F
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
F Em F
I am alone in the night
F Am G Am/F
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
F Em F
I've got a war in my mind
F Am G Am/F F Em F (repeat multiple times)
So, I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
[Bridge]
F Am G F
I'm tired of feeling like I'm fucking crazy
F Am G F
I'm tired of driving 'till I see stars in my eyes
F Am G F
I look up to keep myself sane, baby
F Em F Em
So I just ride, I just ride
[Chorus]
F Am G Am/F
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
F Em F
I am alone in the night
F Am G Am/F
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
F Em F
I've got a war in my mind
F Am G Am/F F Em F (repeat multiple times)
So, I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
