Em D G D
[Verse 1]
C G
Barbed wire fence carvin’ out a hillside
C G
Cuttin’ holes in the midday sun
Em G
Like a post-card framed in a windshield
D
Covered in dust
C G
I love the rhythm of an old grey blacktop
C G
33's just whistlin' by
Em G
Steer the wheel, one handed on a two lane
D
Huggin’ that line
C G
I got the windows down
Em D
No one else around, singin'
[Chorus]
C G
Ooh - ooh
Em D
Freedom is the miles I'm rollin' on
C G
Ooh - ooh
Em D
Out here cruising to a backroad song
C G
I feel the wheels like a melody
Em D
Like a radio dialin’ in strong
C G
C'mon, c'mon sing along
Em D
Sing along to my backroad song
G Em C G
Ooh
G Em D
Ooh
[Verse 2]
C G
I hit the brakes for an old New Holland
C G
Hammer down and pass him on up
Em G
The breeze smells like a summertime hay field's
D
Just been cut
C G
I got the windows down
Em D
Way out of town, singin’
[Chorus]
C G
Ooh - ooh
Em D
Freedom is the miles I'm rollin' on
C G
Ooh - ooh
Em D
Out here cruising to a backroad song
C G
I feel the wheels like a melody
Em D
Like a radio dialin’ in strong
C G
C'mon, c'mon sing along
Em D
Sing along to my backroad song
G Em C G
Ooh
G Em D
Ooh
[Bridge]
C Em
The only way today could get better
D G
Girl what I'm thinkin'
C Em
Is I can pick you up, you slide in this truck
D
And I can hear you singin’
[Tag]
C G Em
Ooh
D
Let me hear you sing it
C G Em D
Ooh
[Chorus 2]
C G
Ooh
Em D
Freedom is the miles we're rollin' on
C G
Ooh
Em D
Out here cruisin’ to a backroad song
C G
I feel the wheels like a melody
Em D
Like a radio dialin’ in strong
C G
C'mon, c'mon sing along
Em D
Sing along to my backroad song
C G
C'mon, c'mon sing along
Em D
Sing along to my backroad song
