I bet this road will take me out of here

Take me far away from Amarillo

I bet this car will go real fast

The wheels might even drive me past

The places that you said I'd never go, oh
G C G C

The Texas sky is the biggest one I've ever seen

       G                                  C
But it still ain't big enough for you and me

All the things that make you mad

C
All the baggage in your past

Don't leave much room for a girl like me to be

So, I'll fill her up with hope and worn out dreams
[Chorus]

And I'll grab the wheel and I'll point it west

D/F#
Pack the good and leave the rest

     C
I'll drive until I find the missing piece

You said I wouldn't get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart

But I got everything I'll ever need

I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings

G                            C
Mama said, I never should've done it

              G                        C
I should have ended us before we ever started

G           D
Daddy knew about my pride

      C
So he stood there and he smiled inside

    G           D             C
And I pretended that I didn't notice

         G                   D             G
A little tear that fell when I said, I was going
[Chorus]
         G
And I'll grab the wheel and I'll point it west

Pack the good and leave the rest

     C
I'll drive until I find the missing piece

You said I wouldn't get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart
    C
But I got everything I'll ever need

           G                D                G       G
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings
[Bridge]
         D
And I've worried about life

            C
And if it's right and right in time

  D
I guess if you don't ever jump

             C                   D
You'll never know if you can fly
G D C C [Chorus]
    G                                D/F#
You said I wouldn't get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart
