Bm                   C
I came to you when I needed a rest
D                    Em
You took my love and put it to the test
Bm                       C
I saw some things that I never would've guessed
D                     D                        G   
Feel like a railroad, I pull the whole load behind me.

Em                       G
That old white line is a friend of mine
         C                          G     D
and it's good times that we've been makin'
Em                             G
Right now I'm rollin' down the open road and the
C                     G           Em
daylight will soon be breaaaaaaaaakin

I was adrift on a river of pride
It seemed like such a long easy ride
You were my raft but I let you slide
Now I've been down but I'm Comin' back up again.

Now I'm rollin' down the open road 
where the daylight will soon be breakin'
Right now I'm thinkin' 'bout these things that I know but it's good
times that we've been maaaaaaaaaakin'
