verse 1 

Intro:  G  D/F#  G 
G 
I'm tired of working every day for a dollar. 
                                   D/F# 
About to choke on my own blue collar. 
C/D              G    
This ain't gonna last. 
G         
Misled by the grand illusion. 
                           D/F# 
I've come to this conclusion. 
C/D                     G 
I can't make a move too fast. 
Em/D                  D/F# 
It was written in the sky today, 
C/D            G       Em                D/F#        G 
By the morning sun. It sure looks like a good day to run.

verse 2 

G 
My baby's been working as a cashier. 
                                       D/F# 
She didn't get a vacation this past year. 
C/D             G 
Now it won't be long. 
G 
We don't need no destination. 
                                          D/F# 
Just a tank of gas and a good clear station, 
C/D                  G  
Playing our favorite song. 
Em/D                      D/F# 
There're some places that we ain't been, 
C/D                  G 
Some things we ain't done. 
       Em                D/F#        G 
And it sure looks like a good day to run.

G                C/D 
Wide open down a two-lane highway,

It's about time that some things went my way.

Throwing troubles out to the wind and, 
    D/F#                          G 
I'm praying that they never catch up again. 
G                C/D               D/F# 
I'm gonna say my worrying days are done.
