-key of GMajºr
-bar lines indicate meaures of 4/4 time
-for the Outro, in places where only Gtr2 is indicated, there is no Gtr1
part for those measures
-it was sometimes difficult to distinguish what Gtr2 was playing in the
Outro (I tried to be as accurate as possible)
Figure 1 - play 4x
We saw the wilds from coast to coast, The cities and the towns, The
drifters on the highways, And the churches burning down
When we pulled into Albequerque, you said the queen spilled out her jewels
So many people, so much love, So much pain, so many rules
The desert sky was filled with stars
They were just out of reach, We were
on our way out to Satellite Beach
2ND VERSE: (played same as 1st Verse)
We didn't hit any weather
Or see any lightning strike
Except for a cruel north Texas wind
Our road was as smooth as ice
Full moon in Mississippi
You couldn't see it through the pines
Truck stops big as cities
Cities as dark as mines
CHORUS: (played same as 1st Chorus)
Mobile, Alabama
There was no one on the street
So we pushed on our way toward
(For the first 12 measures of the guitar solo, Gtr2 plays Figure 1/6x)
Gtr1
Gtr2
3RD VERSE: (played same as 1st Verse)
So we landed at Cape Canaveral
We got there on an off night
It lasted for a week
The casinos and the junkyards
The neon and the crime
We saw the wilds from coast to coast
Now we're watching all the time
CHORUS: (played same as 1st Chorus)
When we get a lift-off
There won't be a speech
There's no room at the inn
