F
Atlanta's a distant memory
C
Montgomery a recent blur
G
And Tulsa burns on the desert floor
C
Like a signal fire
F
I got Willie on the radio
C
A dozen things on my mind
G
And number one is fleshing out
C
These dreams of mine
CHORUS:
F
I've got 200 more miles of rain asphalt and light
Am
Before I sleep
Dm
But there'll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
G
To fall into tonight
VERSE:
F C
Nashville there is a lighter in a case for all to see
G C
It speaks of dreams and heartaches left unsung
F
And in the corner stands a guitar
C
And lonesome words scrawled in a drunken hand
G
I'm travelling paths travelled hard before
C
And I'm beginning to understand
CHORUS:
VERSE:
F
They say that I am crazy
C
My life wasting on this road
G
That time will find my dreams
C
Scattered dead and cold
F
But I heard there is a light
C
Drawing me to reach an end
G
And when I reach there, I'll turn back
C
And you and I can begin again
CHORUS: 2x
VERSE:
Atlanta's a distant memory
Montgomery a recent blur
Tulsa burns on the desert floor
like a signal fire.
