Verse 1:
F
We're still in Wisconsin
Am
As far as I know
Dm
Today was Green Bay
Gm
And tomorrow's Chicago
C
Wish I was lying
Gm
But there isn't much to report
Bb
My phone is dying
F
So I've got to keep it short
Chorus 1:
F Am Dm
I just wanted to say...hey
Gm C
I've been writing you a road song
Am Dm
It's a cliche, but hey
Gm C
That doesn't make it so wrong
Am Dm
And in between the stops at the Cracker Barrel
Gm C
And forty movies with Will Ferrell
Am Dm Gm
I need some way to occupy my time
C
So I'm writing you a road song
Gm C F Fsus4
I sure hope you don't mind
Am D7 Gm C F FFus4
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh uh huh
Verse 2:
F
I bought you a light blue
Am
T shirt last night
Dm
From some band I couldn't stand
Gm
But their logo's alright
C
Some kid threw a bottle onstage
Gm
He had an arm like a pro
Bb
I know it's getting late
F
I guess I should let you go
Chorus 2:
Am Dm
But did I happen to say...hey
Gm C
I've been writing you a road song
Am Dm
Don't run away cause hey
Gm C
I promise it won't be too long
Am Dm
I know it's not what you'd call necessary
Gm C
And I know that I'm no Steve Perry
Am Dm Gm
But even if you roll your eyes and groan
C
I'm still writing you a road song
Gm C F FFus4
That you can call your own
Am D7 Gm C F Fsus4
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh uh huh
End: F
Cheers, and buy Sky Full of Holes!
