[Intro 1]
[G][Dsus4][Em][C][Dsus4][D][G][Em][C][Dsus4][D][G][C]
[D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][D][Dsus4]

[Verse 1]
[D]Night was fallin',
the ho[Dsus4]rizon was callin', as we [D]drove into the setting sun[Dsus4][D]
Goin' back to that coun[Dsus4]try
that we still call [D]home[Dsus4]
[D]Said good bye to [Dsus4]the capital city,
yeah this [D]town has got me on the [Dsus4]run
[D]I need to spend some time out in[Dsus4]
the [D]great unknown.
[C]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
I'm lookin' for [G]sweet inspiration,
[A]every morning [F]noon and [G]night
But these days it [Em]just keeps
on passing me [F]by,
[A]

[Verse 3]
[D]I know you don't feel like making thi[Dsus4]s journey,
but you [D]know that time is on my [Dsus4]side[D]
I can't go on liv[Dsus4]ing
like a [D]refugee[Dsus4]
[D]Way down south where the living is [Dsus4]easy,
we can look [D]across the great di[Dsus4]vide
[D]But all we've got is a poc[Dsus4]k
etful of memor[D]ies.
[C]

[Verse 4]
[Em]We stood on the [G]motorway shoulder
[A]as the sun rose over the [F]lowland [G]hills
And my heart broke [Em]down,
when I looked [Eb]at you[G]
Don't tell me you're leavin' me now,
when you [Em]know how hard I've been tryin'
Darling [C]you're my world,
don't [Dsus4]bring it all [D]tumbling [G]down
It's only the code of the [Dsus4]road,
[G]and the sou[Em]nd of a motor wheel cryin'
[C]Don't renege my love,
don't [Dsus4]bring it all tum[D]bling dow[G]n.

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][F][C][F]
[Dsus4]
One [D]more morning, yes another

[Verse 5]
[Dsus4]day dawning,
and I'm [D]looking at a bird that [Dsus4]sings
[D]Wish I could change my who[Dsus4]le life,
and just fly [D]away[Dsus4]
[D]Over the mountains dow[Dsus4]n through the valleys,
through the [D]homeland of the Celt[Dsus4]ic kings[D]
Now it's just the front[Dsus4]line
for [D]the U.S.A..
[C]

[Verse 6]
[Em]
We live in a [Dsus4]time when[G] the spirit of love[A]
and devotion is [F]breakin' [G]down
And my heart broke [Em]down when
I looked at [Eb]you[G]
Don't tell me you're leavin' me [Dsus4]now,
[D]when you kno[Em]w how hard I've been tryin'
Darling [C]you're my world,
don't [G]bring [Dsus4]it all tu[D]mbling do[G]wn
It's only the code of the road,
and the [Em]sound of a motor wheel cryin'
[C]Don't renege my love, don't [G]bring it all [D]tumbling [G]down.
