Verse:1 
 
More road up ahead 
My radio still broken 
 
C5                                                  G5  
The spinning of the wheels and the fencline lead my way 
G5                           
Your picture on the dash  
D5 
and the need to fly so high 
C5                      D5                 G5 
Are the only two things that I can hold today 
G5 
I left you way down south 
D5 
crying at the rivers mouth 
C5                                            G5  
I got a show up north so I guess it's just as well 
G5 
You're still the one for me  
D5 
But I'm the man I'll always be 
C5                        D5                        G5 
And I won't be the one that takes you straight to hell 
 

C5                        D5 
Cause I'm out here on my own 
G5               C5 
Drinkin' all alone 
                      D5                E5  
Thinkin' bout things and what I left behind 
C5                         D5 
and I need you more right now  
G5                        C5 
To give me redemption somehow 
                       D5          G5 
Rollin' north of that Red River line  
 
Instrumental: 
G5  C5  D5  C5 
 
G5  C5  D5  G5 
 
G5 
So don't you cry for me 
D5 
Cause I can taste what you can't see 
C5                                     G5  
But always know you got a place in my heart 
G5 
I got an angel riding shotgun 
D5 
I got the devil in the back  
C5                     D5                G5 
and the war they wage is gonna tear me apart 
 
Chorus: 
 
Instrumental: Do first instrumental (2x) 
 
 
G5 
As I'm talking to you now 
D5 
The sun is going down 
C5                                             G5 
I don't know where I am , but God it makes me smile 
G5                           D5 
I need just one more word coming from your sweer lips 
     C5                    D5                 G5 
And I swear I'll call you back in a little while 
 
Chorus: 
C5                        D5 
Cause I'm out here on my own  
G5                      C5  
too tired and halfway stoned 
                            D5                 E5 
Thinkin' bout things-------and what I left behind 
C5                         D5 
and I need you more right now 
G5                        C5 
to give me redemption somehow 
                       D5          G5  
Rollin' north of that Red River line
