Driving down the highway miles from home
C F7
It's been that way since the day we started to roam.
This is what we wanted, hey look what we've got.
Got to leave that little town behind and move on.

In the distance the city lights are starting to glow.
Sit back and watch them glimmer, they're starting to grow
Then it goes:
e---------------------------------------------------------------|
b------8--7--6--6--7--8--8--7--7--6-----------------------------|
g---------------------------------------------------------------|
d---------------------------------------------------------------|
a---------------------------------------------------------------|
e---------------------------------------------------------------|
