C# A2 B
It's been a long week, I've got a slow leak in my left front tire.
C# A2 B
I'm sick of where I work, my boss is such a jerk, don't care if I get fired.
C# A2 B
My backs about to break, no money in the bank, and she don't call me anymore.
F# A2
I'm down to my last ring, it's time to sell my things,
CHORUS:
A2 C# B A2
And pack my bags, and never look back, run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
A2 C#
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
B A2 . B
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway!
C# A2 B
A hundred miles in, I got a stupid grin on my scruffy face.
C# A2
With every cigarette, I'm burning my regrets.
B
Don't want to leave a trace.
C# A2 B
And from the rear-view, I've got clear view of who I used to be.
F# A2
A little bit faster now, don't wanna turn around.
A2 C#
I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.
B C#
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
A2 C#
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
B
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight.
C# A2 B
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!
C# A2
I'll be a runaway, I'll be a runaway!
C# A2 B
It's crazy, I know, to count on this road and give me what I need.
C# A2 B
But with every state line, somehow I find, another part of me.
B
Yeah-e-yeah!
A2 C#
I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.
B C#
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
A2 C#
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
B C# A2 C#
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway!
B
I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!
