Am G
Hey kid where ya goin' with those brand new wheels you got
F Am
You think you're gonna last forever, forever says you're not
Am G
Won't ya take me down this gravel road and out a little ways
F Am Am
Forget about this prison town, these goddamn summer days
Dm C G Am
Ever since you went away well it's gotten bad 'round here
F C G G
Sometimes I wanna see it burn in my rear-view mirror
Dm C G Am
You're so lucky you made it out and you don't even know
F C G G
But I still see your car driving up and down County road
Am Am G G
County road
F F F Am
County road
[Verse]
Am G
I've got this joint let's go get high and shoot a little dice
Fmaj7 F Am
I'll pour some gin you can buy me in oh, wouldn't that be nice
Am G
Ever since the storm came through well there's not much left to save
F Fmaj7 Am
Developers they bought your house they're gonna tear it down in May
Dm C G Am
Keep waking up from this nightmare dream time cuts like a knife
F C G G
I wish I could have back what I didn't know were the best years of my life
Dm C G Am
Maybe I'm lucky I'm already dead and I don't even know
F C G G
But I still see your headlights runnin' through the trees out on County road

Remember when we got drunk that time in Ontario
F Am
Listening to Warren Zevon on the stereo (stereo, stereo)
Am G
I keep thinking 'bout that very last night when we went down to the bar
F Am
And even though you're no longer here you'll never be that far
Dm C G Am
Hey kid you know it's been three years since the change
F C G G
The band broke up, boys don't talk and the city's rearranged
Dm C G Am
No one's lucky and no one's saved and no one really knows
F C G G
Why it was you who had to go down like that out on County road
Am Am G G
County Road
[Outro]
