Intro Chords:   G  C  D  G

G                                                     C
Carolina highway, past boroughs and pine breaks

      G                                              D
The roadâs long behind me, every signpost reminds me

G                                                  C
My eyes have grown heavy, my wheels drone on steady

G                   C                   D           G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

Chorus:

D                          C             G

Iâve been here forever, my whole life at least.

                            Em
Am                        D
Trapped between morningâs optimism and nightâs fleeting dreams.

G                                             C
Here where it matters, where reality looms

G                   C                   D                G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

G                                   C
This road was a drug when I started way back

                                   G                   D
Each hill that I killed was like a pill that I took to relax.

G                                     C
Till the peace in the valleys, got a little too peaceful

                    G                     D
All the ridges Iâve run and all that Iâve done

                 G
has left me with eyes full.

G                             C
Eyes full of the worst, eyes full of the best

                     G                        D
Eyes full of the tiredness that wonât let me rest.



G                                   C
All the places I go to, no place is brand new

G                    C                   D              G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

Chorus

Solo

G                           C
Some people sit still, some people go fast

G                                   D
Some go right to it, some never get past

G                                C
Laying a map out, they donât plan just assume.

G                          D                          G
And wind up forever in the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

Chorus

G                            C
Here where it matters, where reality looms

       G            C                   D                G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
