TUNING: HALF STEP DOWN OFF STD
This pairs well with the other version that starts on G with CAPO on Sixth
DI've been sitting here wondering if I'll ever Aget
Back to those wheels, will I ever bBm7e
Changing those strings out before Gadd9nine
DI am wishing for the life that I used to Alive
Giving everything that I had to giBm7ve
In a brand new city 'bout every Gadd9night
AMissing those nights, Bm7missing that sky, Gadd9I been missing home
AMissing their smiles, Bm7missing those miles, Gadd9I been missing home
                                          D  A/Asus4/A  
Out there on the highway, out there on the open road
Ooh baby will you Bm7roll with me, roll with me
Head down to New Gadd9Orleans
I should be wearing out the Dblacktop
Out there with the Aboys I Asus4/Alove
Everybody will you Bm7roll with me, roll with me
Running down this Gadd9dream
And get me out there on the Dhighway
DI've been sitting here asking him every Anight
For a brand new song and a piece of Bm7mind
The road is all I think about these Gadd9days
DAll I need is out there, I will be just Afine
With a 6 string guitar and a jug of Bm7wine
When the lights go down around that sGadd9tage
AMissing those nights, Bm7missing that sky, Gadd9I been missing home
Gadd9Yeah, I've been missing home
                                          D  A/Asus4/A  
Out there on the highway, out there on the open road
Ooh baby will you Bm7roll with me, roll with me
Head down to New Gadd9Orleans
I should be wearing out the Dblacktop
Out there with the Aboys I Asus4/Alove
Everybody will you Bm7roll with me, roll with me
Running down this Gadd9dream
And get me out there on the Dhighway
I Emmiss the sound of rubber rolling out my Gwindow
And that cresDcendo the highway Abrings
Oh, these Emwheels are gonna keep me spinning all my Adays
                        D  A/Asus4/ A   Bm7   G  
Out here on the highway
                                          D  A/Asus4/A  
Out there on the highway, out there on the open road
Ooh baby will you Bm7roll with me, roll with me
Head down to New Gadd9Orleans

Out there with the Aboys I Asus4/Alove
Everybody will you Bm7roll with me, roll with me
Running down this Gadd9dream
