D 
Running out of gas 
        G                     D 
where a gas station's hard to find 
D 
These East Coast toll roads 
G                 D 
drive me outta my mind 
D         G 
You can't go any faster 
G                         D 
than the guy you gotta go behind 
D              A 
I need a new connection 
            D 
There ain't nothin I hate 
          G                     D 
more than waiting in an airport line 
D 
Except a $9 glass 
        G                 D 
of some cheap ass airport wine 
D       G 
I never do have enough room to move 
         D 
When I'm riding that jet airline 
            A 
That jet airline 
 
(CHORUS) 
D        A 
I need a new connection 
G        D 
I need a new direction 
   G                           D 
I'm so tired of looking at the same reflection 
      A 
in my rearview mirror when I'm passing through 
G     A             D 
A new connection to you 
 
I was ridin' in a cab around a town I'd never been 
Cab driver's chain smokin' tryin' to get a station in 
Twenty minutes in the ride the guy asked where I was goin' again 
Where was I goin' again? 
 
I need a new connection 
I need a new direction 
I'm so tired of lookin' at the same reflection in my rear view mirror 
When I'm passin' through 
I need a new inspiration 
Another kind of conversation 
Anything but this situation that we've all been through and through and through 
A new connection to you 
 
I got a hand full of car keys jinglin' on a ring 
I got a head full of worries doin' the same damn thing 
I got a lot more songs than I've got words to sing 
Sometimes you just gotta sing 
 
I need a new connection 
I need a new direction 
I'm so tired of lookin' at the same reflection in the rear view mirror 
That I always do 
I need a new inspiration 
Another kind of conversation 
Anything but this situation that we've all been through and through and through 
A new connection to you
