(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
I must look just like a fool
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
Here in the middle of the road
(G) (D) (Am)
standing there in your rearview
(Em) (G) (Cadd9)
and getting soaked to the bone
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
this land is flat as it is mean
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
a man can see for a hundred miles
(G) (D) (Am)
So Im still praying I might see
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
the glow of a brake light.
(Chorus)
(G)
But your wheels just turn,
(Em)
down the road ahead
(C)
If it hurts at all
(D)
you aint showed it yet
(G)
I keep a lookin' for
(Em)
the slightest sign
(C)
that you might miss
(D)
what you left behind
(Am) (Em) (C)
I know there's nothing stopping you now
(Em) (G) (Cadd9)
but I'd settle for a slowdown.
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
I held on longer then I should
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
Leaving you might change your mind
(G) (D) (Am)
those bright lights of Hollywood
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
would fade in time.
(REPEAT FIRST CHORUS)
(G)
But your wheels just turn
(Em)
down the road ahead
(C)
if it hurts at all
(D)
you aint showed it yet
(G)
your just a tiny dot
(Em)
on that horizon line
(C)
come on tap those brakes
(D)
baby just one time
(Am) (Em) (C)
I know there's nothing stopping you now
(Am) (Em) (C)
Im not asking you to turn back around
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
I'd settle for a slowdown
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
come on just slow down
(Em7) (G) (Cadd9)
I'd settle for a slow down.
