D
Running out of gas
        G                     D
where a gas station's hard to find
D
These East Coast toll roads
G                 D
drive me outta my mind
D         G
You can't go any faster
G                         D
than the guy you gotta go behind
D              A
I need a new connection
            D
There ain't nothin I hate
          G                     D
more than waiting in an airport line
D
Except a $9 glass
        G                 D
of some cheap ass airport wine
D       G
I never do have enough room to move
         D
When I'm riding that jet airline
            A
That jet airline

(CHORUS)
D        A
I need a new connection
G        D
I need a new direction
   G                           D
I'm so tired of looking at the same reflection
      A
in my rearview mirror when I'm passing through
G     A             D
A new connection to you

I was ridin' in a cab around a town I'd never been
Cab driver's chain smokin' tryin' to get a station in
Twenty minutes in the ride the guy asked where I was goin' again
Where was I goin' again?

I need a new connection
I need a new direction
I'm so tired of lookin' at the same reflection in my rear view mirror
When I'm passin' through
I need a new inspiration
Another kind of conversation
Anything but this situation that we've all been through and through and through
A new connection to you

I got a hand full of car keys jinglin' on a ring
I got a head full of worries doin' the same damn thing
I got a lot more songs than I've got words to sing
Sometimes you just gotta sing

I need a new connection
I need a new direction
I'm so tired of lookin' at the same reflection in the rear view mirror
That I always do
I need a new inspiration
Another kind of conversation
Anything but this situation that we've all been through and through and through
A new connection to you
