C#m E Aadd9
I must look just like a fool
C#m E Aadd9
Here in the middle of the road
C#m E Aadd9
Standin there in your rearview
C#m E Aadd9
And gettin soaked to the bone
C#m E Aadd9
This land is flat, as it is mean
C#m E Aadd9
A man can see for a hundred miles
Aadd9 B7 D#m
So I’m still prayin I might see
C#m E Aadd9
the glow of brake light

I held on longer than I should've

Would fade in time

If it hurts at all you ain’t showed it yet

You’re just a tiny dot on that horizon line

C’mon just tap those brakes

Baby, just one time
