[Verse]
Bm                       A
The tires on the asphalt are screaming out the name
G                             A
Of a girl back in Dallas, yea she’s the one to blame
Bm                         A
For playing with my heart, fooling with my soul
G                               A
How could I believe she was the half that made me whole?
Bm A G A

[Verse]
Bm                                 A
This road’s my only comfort as the peddle hits the floor
G                               A
Trying to outrun this hurt I’ll feel forevermore
Bm                             A
I look into the rearview; I see a face from the past
G                               A
In this race against the pain, I’m coming in last

[Chorus]
A        Bm                                A
(‘Cause) My head it is a drifting like the sunlight through the trees
    G                                   A
In this fast car bound for nowhere back to her memory
A      Bm                      A
I can still taste her lies in every single kiss
  G                    A
Betrayal in her eyes, the poison in her lips
A        G                      A
The only thing left to do now is run
A
So I will ramble on
Bm A G A

[Verse]
Bm                      A
In every quiet town I pass along this road
G                             A
I always get the feeling that everybody knows
Bm                                   A
That I’m running from something that I just can’t escape
G                        A
I can’t go back now, no, I fear that it’s too late

[Chorus]
A        Bm                                A
(‘Cause) My head it is a drifting like the sunlight through the trees
    G                                   A
In this fast car bound for nowhere back to her memory
A      Bm                      A
I can still taste her lies in every single kiss
  G                    A
Betrayal in her eyes, the poison in her lips
A        G                       A
The only thing left to do now is run
A
So I will ramble on
Bm A G A

[Verse]
Bm                         A
Up there on the dashboard, the reason I must keep away
G                              A
A bullet rolling round, on the side I’ve scratched her name
Bm                                 A
As this sadness turns to anger and I run out of gas
G                                A
I’m terrified of what I’ll do if I ever turn back


[Chorus]
A        Bm                                A
(‘Cause) My head it is a drifting like the sunlight through the trees
    G                                   A
In this fast car bound for nowhere back to her memory
A      Bm                      A
I can still taste her lies in every single kiss
  G                    A
Betrayal in her eyes, the poison in her lips
A        G                       A
The only thing I can do now is run

So I will ramble on

So I will ramble on
