Capo 3rd Fret 
 
 Bm  D  G  Bm  D  G 
 
 Bm     D                G
 I must look just like a fool 
 Bm          D             G
 Here in the middle of the road 
 D        A                 G
 Standin' there in your rearview 
         Bm                 D  G
 Gettin' soaked to the bone  
 Bm              D             G
 This land is as flat as it is mean 
 Bm A    D               G
 man can see for hundred miles 
 D               A            G
 So I'm still prayin' I might see 
                 Bm          D  G
 The glow of the brake light 
            D
   But your wheels just turn 
            Bm
   Down the road ahead 
         G
   If it hurts at all 
             A
   You ain't showed it yet 
          D
   I keep lookin' for 
       Bm
   The slightest sign 
        G
   That you might miss 
            A
   What you left behind 
     Em                   D/F#         G
   I know there's nothin' stoppin' you now 
                         Bm       D  G
   But, I'd settle for a slowdown  
 Bm        D             G
 I held on longer than I should 
 Bm        D                     G
 Believin' you might change your mind 
 D                A              G
 And those bright lights of Hollywood 
       Bm           D G
 Would fade in time  
 
 Repeat Chorus 
 
 Solo 
            D
   But your wheels just turn 
            Bm
   Down the road ahead 
         G
   If it hurts at all 
             A
   You ain't showed it yet 
                 D
   You're just a tiny dot 
           Bm
   On that horizon line 
           G
   Come on tap those brakes 
        A
   Baby just one time 
     Em                   D/F#         G
   I know there's nothing stopping you now 
           Em            D/F#        G
   I'm not asking you to turn back around 
                    Bm       D G
   I'd settle for a slowdown  
                Bm       D G
   Come on just slowdown  
                    Bm       D G
   I'd settle for a slowdown
