C                                  G
Living in a cabin in american light
C                  G      F
He had a will, he had a plan
Am           G    C
To build his own world
C                                  G
At the age of seventeen he realized
C                         G     F
Did not wanna live the american
              G
The american life
Am                           F
With an arrogant smile, he shook his head
C                   G
Counted his fingers from one to ten
Am
With a foot like lead
F                 G
Revived the engine

                 C                F
He left for the road, no coming home
           Am                 G
No end in sight, like a blue sky
            C               F
He was his own, no coming home
            Am
No end in sight
      G
He realized
                        C
That he drove all night

C                            G
He gathered his pride and suited up
C
In front of the crowd
    G           F
He raised his voice
               G
As shaky as it was
Am                               F
And with an arrogant smile, he shook his head
C                    G
Counted his fingers from one to ten
Am
With a foot like lead
F                 G
Revived the engine

                     C               F
And he left for the road, no coming home
           Am                 G
No end in sight, like a blue sky
            C               F
He was his own, no coming home
            Am
No end in sight
      G
He realized
                       F
That he drove all night

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ohh
Am         G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
F                  Am G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ohh

            C              F
He was his own, no coming home
            Am                G
No end in sight, like a blue sky
            C              F
He was his own, no coming home
           Am          G
No end in sight, he realized
                    C
That he drove all night
