============================================================================

 (Dm)  (F)  (Bb)  (Gm)  (C)

 (Dm) I must (F) look just like a (Bb) fool
 (Dm) Here in the (F) middle of the (Bb) road
 (Dm) Standin' (F) there in your rear(Bb)view
 Gettin' (Dm) soaked to the bone (F) (Bb)
 (Dm) This land is as (F) flat as it is (Bb) mean
 (Dm) (F) man can (Bb) see for hundred  miles
 (Dm) So I'm still pra(F)yin' I might (Bb) see
 The glow of the (Dm) brake light (F) (Bb)

   But your (F) wheels just turn
   Down the (Dm) road ahead
   If it (Bb) hurts at all
   You ain't (C) showed it yet
   I keep (F) lookin' for
   The (Dm) slightest sign
   That (Bb) you might miss
   What you (F) left behind
   I (Em) know there's nothin' (D/F#) stoppin' you (Gm) now
   But, I'D settle for A (Dm) slowdown (F) (Bb)

 (Dm) I held on (F) longer than I (Bb) should
 (Dm) Believin' (F) you might change your (Bb) mind
 (Dm) And those bright (F) lights of Holly(A#)wood
 Would (Dm) fade in time (F) (Bb)

 Repeat Chorus

 Solo

   But your (F) wheels just turn
   Down the (Dm) road ahead
   If it (Bb) hurts at all
   You ain't (C) showed it yet
   You're just a (F) tiny dot
   On that (Dm) horizon line
   Come on (Bb) tap those brakes
   Baby (C) just one time
   I (Dm) know there's nothing (D/F#) stopping you (Gm) now
   I'm not (Em) asking you to (D/F#) turn back ar(Gm)ound
   I'D settle for A (Dm) slowdown (F)(Bb)
   Come on just (Dm) slowdown (F) (Bb)
   I'D settle for A (Dm) slowdown (F) (Bb)
