Tab by: Christopher R. (1:50 AM 5/10/2005)
Capo: 3rd Fret
INTRO: [Bm] [D] [G] (x2)
[Bm] I must [D]look just like a [G]fool
[Bm] Here in the [D]middle of the [G]road
[D] Standin' [A]there in your rear[G]view
Gettin' [Bm]soaked to the bone [D] [G]
[Bm] This land is as [D]flat as it is [G]mean
[Bm] man can [D]see for hundred [G]miles
[D] So I'm still pra[A]yin' I might [G]see
The glow of the [Bm] brake light [D] [G]
CHORUS #1:
But your [D]wheels just turn down the [Bm]road ahead
If it [G]hurts at all, you ain't [A]showed it yet
I keep [D]lookin' for the [Bm]slightest sign
That [G]you might miss what you [A]left behind
I [Em]know there's nothin' [D/F#]stoppin' you [G]now
But, I'd settle for a [Bm]slowdown [D] [G]
[Bm] I held on [D]longer than I [G]should
[Bm] Believin' [D]you might change your [G]mind
[D] And those bright [A]lights of Holly[G]wood
Would [Bm] fade in time [D] [G]
CHORUS #1
INTRO (1/2)
CHORUS #2:
But your [D]wheels just turn down the [Bm]road ahead
If it [G]hurts at all you ain't [A]showed it yet
You're just a [D]tiny dot on that [Bm]horizon line
Come on [G]tap those brakes, baby [A]just one time
I [Em]know there's nothing [D/F#]stopping you [G]now
I'm not [Em]asking you to [D/F#]turn back ar[G]ound
I'd settle for a [Bm]slowdown [D] [G]
Come on just [Bm]slowdown [D] [G]
I'd settle for a [Bm]slowdown [D] [G]
