G                          C                    F                      C 
I drove up from a rivertown, it was late September early October. 
G                                  C                         F 
C 
Thought maybe I could clear my mind and see the leaves turn red. 
G                                    C 
The tunes up and the windows down 
               F                                C 
On the skyline drive when she flagged me over 
G                              C 
"Hallelujah what a beautiful morning" 
                 F                            C 
Where the first words that she said 
A                      F              C                      F 
Her eyes were blue as the sky on a perfect blue ridge day 
A                           F         C                         F             
She said, "I could use a lift if you're going my way," and........
