[Intro] D [Verse 1]
D
Talkin' to myself again

                               A
Wondering if this travelin' is good

                                              D
Is there something better we'd be doing if we could
[Chorus]
    G      A                D
And oh the stories we could tell

    G                 A              D
And if this all blows up and goes to hell

      G            A             D             G
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel

D                A                D
Listenin' to the stories we could tell
[Interlude] D [Verse 2]
  D
Remember that guitar in a museum in Tennessee

                                            A
And the nameplate on the glass brought back twenty melodies

        D
And the scratches on the face

        G 
Told of all the times he fell

D             A              D
Singin' every story he could tell
[Chorus]
    G      A                D
And oh the stories it could tell

      G                A            D
And I bet you it still rings like a bell

      G                 A           D             G
And I wish we could sit back on the bed in some motel

    D             A                D
And listen to the stories we could tell
[Interlude] G A D G A D G A D G D A D D [Verse 3]
   D
So if you're on the road tracking down here every night

                                           A
And you're singin' for a livin' 'neath the brightly colored lights

    D                          G
And if you ever wonder why you ride this carousel

    D              A                 D
You did it for the stories you could tell
[Chorus]
    G      A                D
And oh the stories we could tell

    G                 A              D
And if this all blows up and goes to hell

      G            A             D             G
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel

D                A                D
Listenin' to the stories we could tell
[Outro]
            G            A             D             G
Yeah, I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel

D                A                D
Listenin' to the stories we could tell
