Intro: C
C Fmaj7
I watched a Texas sunset set
Am G
Orange light fading to the smoke of a cigarette
C Fmaj7
With 1500 miles on the clock
Am G G7 C
And 25 days to get to New York, New York
Break: C
C Fmaj7
Slept some in the tent, some in the car
Am G
Lost count of numberless beers in numberless bars
C Fmaj7
Listening to Country and Cajun radio
Am G G7
Dreaming of falling in love at a junction rodeo
Chorus
F G Am
The appeal of rings and things, never held me
F G C
The road always called me back to the door
F
Lyrics light my fire,
G
Worn hands finger-picking inspire me
Am
To play forever more
F G
To follow the street lights to the music,
C
And sing till dawn
Break: C
C Fmaj7
Countless characters and countless tales
Am G
Of state parks and cheap hostels
C Fmaj7
The ocean the river and the bay
Am G
All travellers are just birds of prey
C Fmaj7
With no time to clear the road
Am G
Keep an out for the state border patrol
C Fmaj7
Devouring everything as we go
Am G G7
Good bye Arizona, hello El Paso
Chorus
F G Am
The appeal of rings and things, never held me
F G C
The road always seduced me back to the door
F
Harmonica lights my fire,
G
Rock n rollers inspire me to
Am
Play forever more
F G
To follow the street lights to the music…
Break: C, Fmaj7, Am, G x2
C Fmaj7
I got weighed down in Memphis and Nashville
Am G
Theres too many good singers just to pass through
C Fmaj7
Drawing on condensed car windows, see
Am
Shes more gorgeous than Winslett
G
But I aint no Leo
C Fmaj7
When a parking lots as romantic as it gets
Am G
And youre staying with who you meet next
C Fmaj7
I guess New York City will have to wait
Am
Cause Im high in Atlanta airport tryin to fit two guitars in an overhead crate
Outro: C, Fmaj7, Am, G x4
End on C
