Backroads

Intro G  C  G  C 



G                                      C 
It's just me and all these stars tonight 
G                               C 
The hone of the engine in my ears 
Em                                    C 
I'll make my way back to the city lights 
Em                                    D 
Where I've been spending all these years 

G                                  C 
The air is prickling at my neck again 
G                                   C 
Funny how this road can make you smile 
Em                                       C 
With all the memories of the night we spent 
Em                            D 
The past escapes you for a while 

Just for a while

G                              C 
And i'll be waiting on the sunrise 
G                            C 
Not some looks the other way 
Em                                C 
Shed some light on all these changes 
Em                                  D 
Raise the glass to the break of day 

Em                              C 
Tonight I'm taking all the backroads home 
G                              D 
Just gotta find that peace of mind 
Em                            C 
To face these changes i must face alone 
G                              D 
Babe i just need a little time 

       Em 
And i walk mostly hopeless 
             C 
Find some comfort in despair 
            G 
Breed some sense into the senseless 
           D 
Taste the sweet summer air 

            Em 
And I will walk with my head out now 
           C 
And they'll bring me to my knees 
              G 
I will stand up and be selfless 
             D 
Shed some light on all this greed 

         Em 
And I'll take what I'm given 
         C 
Never ask for nothing more 
               G 
I'll always question and i'll wonder 
              D 
Just what the hell we're fighting for 

           Em 
I wont be fading with the sunset 
       C 
I will drive on through the night 
       G 
And I'll always take the backroads 
         D            Em 
Till I one day get it right 

( C  G )

D                 Em 
Until I Get it right
