names to hopefully tell you it right.

But back home we don’t care so much

  I might be wrong but that’s how it looks

Never been so far before
C                     G
 I drove for days and weeks and more

C                       D
Hard shoulder where the chaos lies
Em                    A7
 An invitation to the darker side

I’m holding on, holding on as my life it slips away
