Capo: 2nd Fret

Intro - Bm - G - A = 2x's



(verse 1)
             Bm                    G               A
It's been a long week, I've got a slow leak In my left front tire 
             Bm                      G                        A
I'm sick of where I work, my boss is such a jerk Don't care if I get fired 
           Bm                      G                         A
My back's about to break, no money in the bank And she don't call me anymore
        Em                           C
I'm down my last drink It's time to sell my things 



(chorus)
     G               Bm                      A                                G
And pack my bags and never look back Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks 
    Bm        A
And make my getaway 
               G                       Bm
I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down 
         A                                     G
Leave everyone sleepin in this sleepy town tonight 
Bm                     A                  Bm - G - A
   And at the break of day,  I'll be a runaway 


(chorus)
             Bm                    G               A
A hundred miles in, I've got a stupid grin On my scruffy face 
             Bm                      G                  A
With every cigarette, I'm burnin my regret Don't wanna leave a trace 
           Bm                      G                A
And from my rear view, I've got a clear view Of who I used to be 
        Em                           C
A little bit faster now Don't wanna turn around 


(chorus)
     G               Bm                      A                                G
And pack my bags and never look back Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks 
    Bm        A
And make my getaway 
               G                       Bm
I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down 
         A                                     G
Leave everyone sleepin in this sleepy town tonight 
Bm                     A                  Bm - G - A                Bm - G - A
   And at the break of day,  I'll be a runaway          I'll be a runaway



(bridge)
     Em                  D                   G
It's crazy, I know, to count on this road To give me what I need 
          Em                 D             G             A
But with every state line, somehow I find Another part of me YEA


(Lead - Bm - G - A = 2x's)




(chorus)
           G               Bm                      A                                G
I'm gonna pack my bags and never look back Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks 
    Bm        A
And make my getaway 
               G                       Bm
I'll put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down 
         A                                     G
Leave everyone sleepin in this sleepy town tonight 
Bm                     A                  Bm - G - A                Bm - G - A
   And at the break of day,  I'll be a runaway          I'll be a runaway
              Bm - G - A
I'll be a runaway
