E 
                                E 
It gets the worst at night 
                                E 
With nothing on my mind 
      A 
But you 
E 
                                E 
I'm thinking too damn much 
                            E 
I go ahead and get up 
              A 
And put on my boots 
          C#m           B              A 
So i can drive as far as i can get from you 

E 
On my way out of town 
E 
I drive by your house 
        A 
Two times 
E 
It don't do me no good 
E 
I didn't think that it would 
                   A 
'cause you're not mine 
              C#m          B                  A 
You might have seen me but i kept on driving by 
        C#m              B                 A 
Going to lose myself on some dark road tonight 

                   E                B               A                  E 
'cause there's something 'bout just laying down and taking all that pain 
E                   B                         A 
I'd rather drive all night, if it's all the same 
E              B       A                    E 
'cause half a tank of gas will get me far enough 
E                B           A                 E 
To be completely lost by the time the sun comes up 

E (3 bars) - a (1 bar) 

E 
And so it's four a.m. 
E 
I'm on the road again 
                A 
To find some peace 
E 
Some old gravel road 
E 
God only knows 
                    A 
There's nothing for me 
                 C#m           B          A 
And there ain't nothing left for me in tennessee 
          C#m              B                A 
Because i know you're not awake thinking of me 

                   E                B               A                  E 
'cause there's something 'bout just laying down and taking all that pain 
E                   B                         A 
I'd rather drive all night, if it's all the same 
E              B       A                    E 
'cause half a tank of gas will get me far enough 
E                B           A                 E 
To be completely lost by the time the sun comes up 
                 C#m           B          A 
And there ain't nothing left for me in tennessee 
          C#m              B                A 
Because i know you're not awake thinking of me
