For lead guitar, on your basic scale at the first 3 frets, you play C, Bb, C, Eb for the
verse. When you play the C chord for the verse, you let go of all of your fingers except
the bar.

C
Falling asleep at the wheel again baby 
C
You're drifting over the line (the line) yeah
C
Your hands are tight but you're losing grip quickly 
C
Fix me, can you read the signs? 
C
Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty 
C
And dreaming of the other side
C 
Save your tears and laughter 
C
Because it doesn't matter what you find 
C      Bb     F

C      Bb     F
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you
C      Bb     F 
With no place to go 
Bb           F
If you think you need it 
Bb           F

C
But it ain't pretty 
C
With everything that you do is wrong 
C
And you fell like you can barely survive yeah 
C
When those around you are crumbling downwards 
C
Buried in the sunset alive 
C
Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty 
C
And screaming like you're back from hell 
C
Save your dreams and occupations 
C
Cos' it doesn't matter what you sell 
C       Bb    F
