[Intro]
C C7 G6add4  Am Am7 F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
 
 
[Verse 1]
                     C
Well I wanna send a postcard
Cmaj7                                      G6add4
From the edge of a place I've never been
                     Am
And I wanna make love hard
Am7                                                F  Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
Under the stars in the back of a beat up ole' K-10
                        C
And I wanna love a girl who
Cmaj7                                         G6add4
Doesn't worry about the pictures when we kiss
                                      Am
Wake up one day and not be so hit and miss
Am7                                           F   Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
Lay in bed all day and call that shit pure bliss
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
I'm movin' at god speed
Cmaj7                                 G6add4
Only God and my mama know what I need
                                     Am
And I feel the hardwood floors on my knees
Am7                                     F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
As I beg you just to take it easy on me
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
                     C   Cmaj7  G6add4  Am Am7 F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
I'm movin' at god speed
 
 
[Verse 2]
                           C
Well I wanna see the road melt
Cmaj7                          G6add4
Into the mountains away as I drive
                                   Am
And make it out of this damn town alive
Am7                                   F  Fmaj7  F Fmaj7
And not let the dreams I shoulder die
 
 
[Chorus]
                     C
Cause I'm movin' at god speed
Cmaj7                                 G6add4
Only god and my mama know what I need
                                     Am
And I feel the hardwood floors on my knees
Am7                                     F  Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
As I beg you just to take it easy on me
 
 
[Verse 3]
                        C
Well I wanna die an old man
Cmaj7                                       G6add4
Messed-up stories of me and all my old friends
                                            Am
And laugh about how we all thought it won't end
Am7                             F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
How we all wind up where we begin
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
           C
Movin' at god speed
Cmaj7                                     G6add4
Where only god and our mamas know what we need
                                        Am
And we feel the hardwood floors on our knees
                                        F   Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
As we beg the world to bring us to our feet
 
 
[Chorus]
                    C
Cause I'm movin at god speed
Cmaj7                              G6add4
Only god and my mama know what I need
                                      Am
And I feel the hardwood floors on my knees
Am7                                     F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
As I beg you just to take it easy on me
 
 
[Outro]
                    C Cmaj7   G6add4    Am Am7    F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
I'm movin' at god speed
