Key of A
Capo 2nd Fret

(Palm muting the intro, first verse, and first part of the final chorus is in my opinion the best way to match the feel of the album. There’s banjo picking on the CD, but I don’t know how to play the banjo, much less play it at the same time as guitar.)

Intro:

D  Em  C  G x2

(Chorus)

D                                                 Em
They say you never know what you've got till it's gone
            C                                               G
He's gonna learn the hard way when he finds you long gone
D                                         Em
Gone like the wind in your hair hands in the air
C                               G
Singing so long good luck
                              C             G
I want to set your heart free ride with me
      D
I want to be your getaway
   C             G
Heart free ride with me
    D(Hard stop)                   C 
I want to be your getaway truck

G  Em  D

                          C(Hard Stop)
Girl I’ll get you out with a bang like a bullet from a gun


(Chorus)

They say you never know what you've got till it's gone
He's gonna learn the hard way when he finds you long gone
Gone like the wind in your hair hands in the air
Singing so long good luck
Girl I want to set your heart free
Ride with me
I want to be your getaway
Heart free ride with me

(Verse)

Summer time sunshine cheap sunglasses
My heart sang southern twang sweeter than molasses
Like a country angel two-steppin in my dance hall dreams
Girl you've got a heart of gold and you're beautiful in blue jeans

(Chorus)

D                                                 Em
They say you never know what you've got till it's gone
            C                                               G
He's gonna learn the hard way when he finds you long gone
D                                         Em
Gone like the wind in your hair hands in the air
C                               G
Singing so long good luck
                              C             G
I want to set your heart free ride with me
      D
I want to be your getaway
   C             G
Heart free ride with me
    D                                    Em
I want to be your getaway truck

(Bridge)

                C                                         G                             D
They say life is like a highway it can turn into a dead end road
                              Em
I ain't afraid to get stuck
            C                                D
I got a four wheel drive kinda heart 
                                                                 C
My love is tough enough to carry any load

G  Em  D  C  G  Em  D  C

They say you never know what you've got till it's gone
He's gonna learn the hard way when he finds you long gone
Gone like the wind in your hair hands in the air
Singing so long good luck
Good luck
They say you never know what you've got till it's gone
He's gonna learn the hard way when he finds you long gone
Gone like the wind in your hair hands in the air
Singing so long good luck
Girl I want to set your heart free
Ride with me
I want to be your getaway
Heart free ride with me
I want to be your getaway
Heart free ride with me
I want to be your getaway truck
I want to be your getaway truck
