          B              
I had to leave my life in Dallas
                          E                          
That town will always be you
B
In every crowd, on every corner
                       E                                          
In every face I'd see you
B
So with nothin' more than a tank of gas
B
I drove away without lookin' back
E
And I guess that's how I got where I am
C#m                         GbMaj                                                                      
goin' anywhere as fast as I can

CHORUS

E
And I'm a little past Little Rock
E  
Further down the line
B                
Too soon to know what's up ahead
B
Too late to change my mind
E
I gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
GbMaj                              Gb7                               
I'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels
E
It's a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blue
G#m                                   E                                   
Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do
B
I'm a little past Little Rock
GbMaj                     B
But a long way from over you

B
These headlights on the highway
                     E                     
Disappear into the dark
B
And if I could have it my way
                          E                          
I'd go back to where you are
B        (tacet)
Oh, but I can't turn this thing around
B
And nothing short of breaking down
E
Is gonna get me off this road I'm on
C#m                                GbMaj                                
Oh, and I'm still a far cry from gone

Chorus

E
And I'm a little past Little Rock
E  
Further down the line
B                
Too soon to know what's up ahead
B
Too late to change my mind
E
I gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
GbMaj                              Gb7                               
I'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels
E
It's a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blue
G#m                                   E                                   
Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do
B
I'm a little past Little Rock
GbMaj                     B  E                               
But a long way from over you
B
I'm a little past Little Rock
GbMaj                     B  E  B  E                            
But a long way from over you
