Verse 1:


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        I'm Trying To Focus


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        But I'm Falling Asleep


F#5  G5 (Barre) G5           C5


        The Baggage On My Eyelids is too heavy too keep from falling


E5      A5 C5     G5


 Ramble On into the day...



F#5  G5 (Barre)


        I've been Driving


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        Since A Quarter To Three


F#5  G5 (Barre)  G5           C5


        I've seen the sun come up so many times this week


          E5       A5 C5    G5


It's scary, Rollin' on until the day....


Chorus:


E5                 D5 E5


When I get on that open road


          C5    D5        E5


There's a pull within my bones


E5                 D5     E5


Like a ship that's bound by rope


          C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go...


         C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go...


Verse 2:


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        I've been runover


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        By The hangover Truck


F#5  G5 (Barre) G5               C5


        A Drive-by shooting shot down by 12 ounce city proof slugs


        E5      A5


Embedded, in my head

    C5       G5


The ache in my head....


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        I've been smoking


F#5  G5 (Barre)


        Sticks from a ditch


F#5  G5 (Barre) G5                  C5


        That Midwest Farmers Daughter's the one thats making me itch


         E5          A5    C5    G5


In Places, I'd never want an itch to be...




Chorus:



E5                 D5 E5


When I get on that open road


          C5    D5        E5


There's a pull within my bones


E5                 D5     E5


Like a ship that's bound by rope


          C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go


         C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go...



Solo:

For the Solo Part Geoff Weers uses an Em chord with some quick little mutted strums in 
between. You should be able to figure it out on your own,
Listen to the song to figure out the rhythm.


Chorus:

(He Starts using Barre Chords)



E5                  D5 E5


When I get on that open road


          C5    D5        E5


There's a pull within my bones


E5                 D5     E5


Like a ship that's bound by rope


            C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go...


             C      Dmaj         Em <------------ He Goes back to Open Chords


It won't let go, It Won't let go...


E5                 D5     E5


Like a ship that's bound by rope


            C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go...


            C5      D5         E5


It won't let go, It Won't let go...
