Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
Well that [G]big red sun
was sinkin' slow
That horizon had a haunting glow
I could see those heat waves
rising off [C]the ground
We were [G]sittin' on go at that
old stop sign
Headlights shinin' on the county line
It was do or die,
had to get out of that [C]town
Well honey, [Am]you said run
We [C]were so [D]young

[Verse 2]
Try[G]in' to the world on fire
[C]Turn the key and spark the wire
Chas[Em]in' down a feelin',
run[D]nin' on de[C]sire
The fu[G]ture was an open road
[C]Gone in a cloud of smoke
Leav[Em]in' a trail [D]of flames
behind those [C]tires
Just you and me girl,
[D]settin' the world [G]on fire
[C]Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
We were [G]blazin' down the
road like Kerouac
No time to stop and cover our tracks
We were too damn hot for
any one town [C]to hold
Yeah, [G]we burned through
a few good years
Then you started looking back
in that rear view mirror
Right outside of Reno the trail got [C]cold
You said you'd [Am]had enough
of this [C]ram[Em]blin' [D]love

[Verse 4]
Try[G]in' to the world on fire
[C]Turn the key and spark the wire
Chas[Em]in' down a feelin',
[Dsus4]run nin' on de[D]sire[C]
The fu[G]ture was an open road
[C]Gone in a cloud of smoke
[Em]Leavin' a trail [D]of flames
behind those [C]tires
For a while there girl,
we were [D]settin' the world on fire
[F][C][Am]

[Verse 5]
[D]
[G]Pullin' on a Lucky Strike
'bout to head west
Ridin' off into God's sunset
It's times like this a always think [C]of you
But honey [Am]you know me, I'll [C]always b[D]e

[Verse 6]
Try[G]in' to the world on fire
[C]Turn the key and spark the wire
Chas[Em]in' down a feelin',
[D]runnin' on de[C]sire
The fu[G]ture is an open road
[C]Gone in a cloud of smoke
Leav[Em]in' a trail [D]of flames
behind these [C]tires
See I'm out here girl,
set[D]tin' the world on fire
[G]

[Verse 7]
[C]
I'm settin' the world [G]on fire
[C]Yeah, I'm settin' the world on fire
[G][C]
