For lead guitar, on your basic scale at the first 3 frets, you play C, Bb, C, Eb for the 
verse. When you play the C chord for the verse, you let go of all of your fingers except 
the bar. 
 
C 
Falling asleep at the wheel again baby  
C 
You're drifting over the line (the line) yeah 
C 
Your hands are tight but you're losing grip quickly  
C 
Fix me, can you read the signs?  
C 
Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty  
C 
And dreaming of the other side 
C  
Save your tears and laughter  
C 
Because it doesn't matter what you find  
C      A#     F 
It ain't pretty  
C      A#     F 
After the show  
C      A#     F 
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you 
C      A#     F  
With no place to go  
A#           F 
If you think you need it  
A#           F 
Here's the place to feed it  
C 
But it ain't pretty  
C 
With everything that you do is wrong  
C 
And you fell like you can barely survive yeah  
C 
When those around you are crumbling downwards  
C 
Buried in the sunset alive  
C 
Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty  
C 
And screaming like you're back from hell  
C 
Save your dreams and occupations  
C 
Cos' it doesn't matter what you sell  
C       A#    F 
It ain't pretty  
C       A#    F
