[Verse 1]

I chased a lot of sunsets

I seen a desert sky like it's on fire out in Arizona

Midnight ridin' wherever the wind blows
[Chorus]
D Em
Like a highway desperado
C D
These boots, these days still ain't slowin' down

Hit the ground runnin' down
C
Every town to town, wherever the wheels go

With bad company

I got a shotgun angel

Ready to ride right next to me

Wide open road (Ride or die)

The Carolina coast
D C
Maybe San Antonio, wherever the wind blows
[Chorus]

Like a highway desperado
