Introduction:
C#m B C#m
then
C#m
In cruise control
B F#m
to the wreck of me
C#m
I lay my head up
B
against the wheel
F#m C#m
and dream Highway
B F#m
forty five O nine
C#m
Stretches across
B
this wicked dream
F#m C#m
of mine Abated only
B F#m
by the engine drone
C#m
The silence takes
B F#m
hold then I'm home
C#m B
Phantoms and shadows
G#m
take control of the
A B C#m
wheel The smell
B G#m
of gasoline sex and
A B C#m
steel Somewhere
B
I lost my way and
G#m A B C#m
you got brave
B G#mA
And now here I lay
C#m
Somewhere in this
highways moan The
B
Angels dare to
F#m
guide my way
C#m
Strychnine and
broken spine
B F#m
The engine wanes
C#m
Seat belt tightens
B F#m
across my chest
C#m
Broken glass and
B
plastic finally
F#m
come to rest
A
Coz all my senses
B
come alive and
start to shake
A
me Broken bones
B
and the smile
that you left
C#m
Magnolia don't
A
pray for me All
E
the warning signs
B
I never cared to
C#m
see Magnolia all
A
direction lost
E
I took the ride
G#m
and I paid the cost
C#m
No illustrious
A
collaboration
E
somewhere outta
B
time alone and You're
C#m
the one that made
A
it out You're the
E G#m
shadow and the doubt
A
A lonely ambulance
B
is heard across the
A
highway With sirens
B
screaming out your name
C#m
Magnolia don't
A
pray for me All
E
the warning signs
B
I never cared to
C#m
see Magnolia all
A
direction lost
And you're the one
G#m
that's moving on
C#m
don't your razor
steel collapse and
A E
burn away Crosses
B
line and Angels prey
C#m
Cruise control to
A
the very wreck of me
E
The warning signs I
G#m C#mA E B
was too blind to see
C#m A
Magnolia all direction
E
lost You're the one
G#m(hold)
