Open Road

 
Bm                                 D 
Well, this Texas wind is howling, blowing across the county line, 
F#                             Bm 
And the rain I pray me, just disguise my tears 
G                                          D 
And I wonder do you think of me, in the memories your keeping 
F#                                            Bm 
Is your hair still golden brown after all these years 
 

 
    G            D                          G 
Open road, open road, wont you carry me back home 
D       Bm           E              A    F# 
Where I belong, it feels a lifetime ago 
G          D                   G             D 
Open road, open road I feel an aching in my bones 
Bm                          E                  A   F# 
O Lord I know theres only one place I should go

Bm                                             D 
Well, this storm is trying to chase me down, though I been running through the night 
F#                                       Bm 
And my heart feels like a river going flood its banks 
G                                        D 
Have you let your heart forgive me babe, have you found somebody new 
F#                                               Bm 
And what do I have to do to make you change your plans 
 

 
    G            D                          G

Open road, open road I feel an aching in my bones

Babe, I know we wont be there, to convince you, that Ive changed, 
F#                        Bm 
But darling one thing Ive learnt to be true 
G                                           D 
Having tried to find my freedom, down on congress avenue 
F#                                           Bm 
Its the only word that makes me feel real, is you
